Description

“My background bridges agriculture, trade, and nutrition, so I can help those that are looking to bulk up their ‘food literacy’. Where our food comes from, how to understand science, how we should actually choose what we feed ourselves and our families… These are the questions I have spent many years studying and thinking about. I help people redefine their reality with fact-based information that they were either missing entirely or had not been presented in an engaging way.” - Christine Cochran Tune in to this episode to learn about: The pandemic’s effect on the food industry and supply chains Did those empty grocery shelves represent a true food shortage? If not, what explains it? Grain’s journey from field to table and what challenges the pandemic has presented What long-term impacts might this pandemic have on grocery shopping and other behaviors How today’s wheat compares to that of the past A sneak peek at the Dietary Guidelines My guest, Christine Cochran, BS, JD, is the executive director of the Grain Foods Foundation. A lover of grains before joining the Foundation, she is now an educated lover of grains.  Full shownotes at www.SoundBitesRD.com/156
