Food safety in French: Le Blog d'Albert Amgar
I’m not sure how I would have figured stuff out when I moved to Manhattan (Kansas) if Amy wasn’t with me.
Especially the American university administrative hoops. And the French. I’m Canadian but, like many other Canadians, don’t speak French. Fortunately, Amy’s a French professor so I can now understand all the food safety stuf Albert Amgar sends me from France – it’s usually in French.
Albert has just retired and has started his own blog, Le Blog d’Albert Amgar. It sounds classy, cause it’s French.
“Among the subjects reviewed are the recall of food in France, Europe and the rest of the world, food hygiene, HACCP, management of microbial risks, food safety policy, food microbiology through microorganisms of interest and those that make problems (emergent or not), chemical risks of different natures, problems arising in food safety and security as well as some elements in nutrition, and some simply in security.”
Albert also has this quote at the top of his blog from Pierre Darmon’s, “L’homme et les microbes” (The Man and the Microbes):

“Hygiene, before Microbiology, is only hygienic in its intentions. It’s a Science of appearances that rests in the hands of the blind: what’s healthy is beautiful, good, and doesn’t smell bad.”
Best wishes for the blog, Albert. And after three years I’m starting to understand the Tour de France – or at least the scenery.

people should be aware about food safety issues which is causing food recall,there should be stiff food hygiene policy.
Yes. Food hygiene is important. Yet, thank goodness we can have a funtioning immune system to ward off those nasty microbes.
