What Purpose?  The ability of science and technology to improve society requires a trust relationship between consumers, academics and journalists. We explore the capabilities and limitations of this network. We seek understanding of the strengths and weaknesses of providing factual science-based food information. As facts flow from benchtop to blog does accuracy suffer?
