- In most signifcant safety incidents (shuttle disasters, BP oil spill, GM ignition switch failure, etc), when panels of the smartest women and men investigate “why” they happened, they almost always conclude it’s “culture.” True for food safety too. https://www.nytimes.com/2024/02/26/business/boeing-faa-safety-culture.html?smid=li-share

- The WIC program currently serves nearly half of babies born in America. We know this program is incredibly successful and that the improvements we make will strengthen the nutritional security of moms, babies, and young kids.
- Farmers, ranchers, and forest landowners are part of the solution to climate change, and they need trusted information to navigate emerging carbon market options.

@frankyiannas
- Anonymity of prevention in full display. When I was at FDA, we sometimes received criticism. I never took it personal &, if valid, used it to try to do better. But sometimes when we led on big issues, it went unreported. Well done @FDAfood! https://www.fda.gov/food/cfsan-constituent-updates/fda-announces-pfas-used-grease-proofing-agents-food-packaging-no-longer-being-sold-us
