Study of the nature of food and the
principles of its production,
processing, preservation and
packaging.
Nutrition
Study of components of food

3 periods in Food
Development
- Early Discoveries
- Industrial Revolution
- Government Regulations
Early Food Discoveries
- Civilizations formed where water, game
and land provided food
- Farming began: food that could be kept
longer where favored
- Cheese was ‘invented’
Rennin
Enzyme in the stomach
that reacted with warm
temperatures and curdled
milk into cheese
Industrial Revolution
- Canning process
- Microscopes Invented
- Power Driven Machines used for processing
Product developed during WWI
Pancake Mix
Baking powder was mass-produced,
commercial yeast became available and
convenience foods were developed
Government Regulations
Early Regulation
Regulation Today
Watchdog Groups
Food Labeling
Early Regulations
Adulteration: Lowering of the quality and
safety of a product by adding inferior or
toxic ingredients
Examples: Milk with chalk added
Sugar containing sand
Ground pepper containing twigs
Early Regulations
USDA established:
The United States Department of
Agriculture
FDA established:
Food and Drug Administration
Regulations Today
The Food, Drug Cosmetic Act
regulates the trade of food
Food Code published with
recommendations from the FDA
Watchdog Groups
Organizations that observe and
report scientific developments,
policy and legislation related to
the food industry.
Food Labeling
The Nutrition Labeling and
Education Act of 1990 restricted
the use of nutrition claims on
food labels
Recent Contributions
Hydroponic crops: Grown with
their roots suspended in liquid
nutrient solutions
Recent Contributions
Food Analog: Natural or
manufactured substances that are
used in place of foods
Examples: Whipped topping
Bacon bits made from soy
Rice milk
Reasons to use
Food Analogs
Lowers cost
Extends shelf life
Options for allergies or diabetes
Cryogenic Liquids
Substances that are liquids at very
low temperature
Vegetables and Fruit
Products maintain color, texture,
and nutrients

Calculate percentage of Italian restaurants in 2004 out
of total restaurants in 2004
1st step: Add number of restaurants in 2004 (1,932 + 988+ 1,023
=3,943)
2nd step: use equation part ÷ whole x 100 = %
988 ÷ 3,943 x 100 = 25.1%
Percentage of Italian Restaurants in 2004 out of total restaurants
equals 25.1%
