This month, Sabina C. V. Alexander will share a thought, question, or observation each week inspired by her experiences in food safety, microbiology, and the dairy industry.
The goal is simple: start meaningful conversations about the challenges, opportunities, and ideas shaping the future of food safety.
Read her thoughts below, then share your own perspective in the comments. We look forward to the discussion.

World Food Safety Day is Sunday, June 7th. The theme this year is โFrom burden to solutions โ safe food everywhereโ.
This aligns with my dream of safe food for everyone and it has me reflecting on what it would take to have safe food everywhere, every day, and for everyone.

What do you think it will take to make the dream of safe food everywhere, every day, and for everyone a reality?
Hereโs one thing Iโve always thought. I think everyone in the food industry needs to pivot from profit and loss goals first to goals related to ethics and integrity in food safety first.
Iโm reading Simon Sinekโs Start with Why for the fourth or fifth time โ well, this time itโs the 15th anniversary edition, so technically itโs the first time โ and again I get to thinking about the food industry and how it may change if all food businesses had a why centered around ethics and integrity in food production and it was part of their culture. How might that change food safety narratives?
So, tell me, what do you think of my dream and answer the question yourself: What do you think it will take to make the dream of safe food everywhere, every day, and for everyone a reality?
I look forward to hearing what you think and to a lively discussion as we look ahead to World Food Safety Day on Sunday and, hopefully, perpetually โ one day.
