On the surface, food science may sound simple. But once you dive deeper, you’ll discover a world of innovation, challenges, and incredible scientists behind the food you find on grocery store shelves. On this exciting episode of Let’s Talk Chemistry edited by David Alvia, hosts Elizabeth Li and Poorvi Iyer discuss our interview with Dr. David Julian McClements, Distinguished Professor at the Department of Food Science at the University of Massachusetts and most cited author in food science. Dr. McClements talks about how next generation plant based foods are being developed to be more sustainable and healthy, while being able to successfully replicate meat products using reverse engineering. He then goes on to discuss his thoughts on highly processed foods, how to eat mindfully, as well as a few books of his that are all about the fascinating science behind food we eat everyday. We hope you enjoy!
