Aleen is joined by one of our most-requested guests: Erin, aka @FoodScienceBabe. She's a (you guessed it) food scientist, who is known across social media for combating misinformation around food and labeling. To start off the episode, Erin tells Aleen how she spent a decade working for companies in this space and shares some of the BTS info she learned along the way. Erin then dishes on something we’ve all been wondering - is it really worth spending more money to buy organic? She gives us the full breakdown on what the deal is with that, and what even qualifies a food to be organic. Next, Aleen and Erin talk about GMOs and the truth behind all those other industry buzzwords we see everywhere — you know, like superfoods, artificial flavorings, etc. To wrap up, Erin walks us through some examples of how labels differ around the world and shares some of the craziest misinformation about food that she's seen on social media.
