Ever wonder who makes the nutrition labels and ingredient lists on our food packaging? It was likely the work of a food science technician. As the righthand men and women of food scientists, they assist and support in the lab and in the field – collecting and logging samples and data, keeping detailed records and conducting quality control tests of food products. Thanks to these experts, we can enjoy food without the risk of consuming low-quality or unsafe ingredients.
