September 2011/Prepared Foods -- Everyone nowadays seems to be interested in food safety--in fact, the Produce Manufacturing Association ranks food safety as the number one issue now facing the industry. In this heightened environment, it is not just good sense to mitigate threats to food safety--it becomes essential.
One company that has tackled the issue head-on is Olam Spices & Vegetable Ingredients--with two unique, high-performance vegetable products claimed to reduce risk and guarantee a year-round supply of high-quality product that is safe and ready-to-eat. Both products make use of Olam’s RTE 3-Step Process (see chart “Smart Steps to Food Safety”).
