The Right Ingredient to Any Family Meal this September: Food Safety
In my dual professional role as a food safety practitioner and a registered dietitian, I happen to have two passions that coalesce in September: our FMI Foundation campaign that encourages households to enjoy one more meal each week together using items from the grocery store, National Family Meals Month™, in addition to September’s annual focus on consumer food safety awareness.

Two Millennials in FMI’s office, compared their grocery shopping habits to FMI's 2017 U.S. Grocery Shopper Trends report.
Food Safety and Family Meals Go Together
September isn’t just National Family Meals Month™ (NFMM). It’s also National Food Safety Education Month, the period every year when the Partnership for Food Safety Education (PFSE) devotes as many resources as it can to getting its message out about what families can do to reduce their risk of food poisoning.
How Retailers and Dietitians are Celebrating National Family Meals Month™
In case you missed it, National Family Meals Month™ is off to a hot start. Food retailers and industry partners are encouraging shoppers to have one more family meal a week around the table.
Going the Distance for Consumers – Beyond the Label
Customers are looking for more and more information about the products they buy – the kind of detailed information that will not fit on the package, but can be conveyed electronically.
