Ingredient Technology: Ice Cream, Beverages and Everything Dairy

Food professionals from all over the globe have started gathering in Chicago (my hometown—born and raised, and still here!) for the Institute of Food Technologists (IFT) 2013 Annual Meeting & Food Expo. This is the only annual event that brings together professionals involved in both the science and the business of food—experts from industry, academia and government.

I hope to see you this week!

Would you like to meet for coffee to discuss an innovative product concept or ingredient technology…maybe banner ad opportunities?

Need a restaurant recommendation?

Want to see my 13-year-old son’s baseball playoff games on Saturday (less than a 20 minute cab ride from downtown and easily accessible via public transportation)?

Connect with me via donnaberry@dairy-food.com.

Need some inspiration to get your innovative juice flowing?
Here are a few of my most recent articles published in Food Business News.
