I flew yesterday from Auckland to Melbourne and sat next to a lady also called Sarah. She was completing her PhD in food chemistry. She was flown out to Australia from the UK for a conference on food put on by global companies discussing how to combat obesity and change how food companies are received by the public. I asked what was being discussed and she said fat, salt and sugar being contributors to the obesity she also mentioned how companies were realising that simply incorporating things into products and not telling consumers was starting to come back and bite them! I simply said to myself Oh boy where do I start? It too cemented for me that to change how the public are viewing appropriate and functional nutrition there must be a plethora of radicle shifts needed in what students are being taught!
