Highlights from IFT 2012

Possibly the biggest event in the food technologist's calendar occurred at the end of June in Las Vegas: the Institute of Food Technologists (IFT) Annual Meeting and Food Expo 2012.

Although it's based in the US, the show attracts the best of the food industry's engineering and scientific talent from across the globe. Today, FoodNavigator delivers special content based on its coverage of the convention.

In this edition of our daily newsletter, we cover the IFT-backed campaign to counter negative impressions of the food industry; Mintel on the latest direction for 'natural' trends; Kalsec on how to fight food adulteration and a host of flavour, colour and sweetener innovation.

So, whether it be worldwide trends or fresh European activity from the food industry's solution providers, we'll deliver the highlights while you sit back and browse. Simply click on the articles on the homepage to find out more.
