The Chron this weekend published their monthly Q&A; with nutrition and food-related public policy expert Marion Nestle, this time focusing what the hot button issues for 2010 will be in food safety regulation, agriculture, nutrition guidelines, etc. The biggest takeaways: the FDA is designing some new mandatory front-of-package food labels, and Congress is sitting on a bill that would finally empower the FDA do deal with stuff like salmonella and mad cow.
