In this 3-part series John Durmick will discuss the evolution, economics, and challenges of the large-scale industrial food system we all now depend on.
This, Part 3, will review the history of manufactured food products and the corporate system that creates them.
Durmick is a (mostly) retired software industry executive, and lives near Nassawadox.
These seminars are occasionally rescheduled on short notice. Prospective attendees are urged to check the Seminar’s website (www.SciPhi.org) shortly before a scheduled date.
