Welcome to The Food Professor podcast, Season three!

We’re back on the mic after a busy couple of weeks for Sylvain and the podcast; our last episode with Robert Andjelich, the largest farm owner in Canada, was our most popular ever, though some of that activity may be a reflection of Sylvain’s media popularity in the past couple of weeks too!

Our extraordinary guest this week is a revolutionary farmer of a different type, Josh Tetrick, CEO and co-founder of Eat Just Inc

In 2022, Canada became the largest croissant exporter in the world. We now export millions of kilos of butter along with these croissants – but is this another factor in the high cost of butter domestically?
The Grocery Code of Conduct update/ reaction – what we know, what we don’t know, and when we’ll know it
CCSA’s new alcohol guidelines – in a world where almost everything causes cancer, if you consume enough of it, what is the right approach to communicating the risks?
Parliament is back next week, and expectations, including on Bill C-252 (food advertising to children)
