Marion Nestle Quotes

I don’t define anything I eat as a vice Picture Quote #1

The Centers for Disease Control says that there are 76 million cases of food poisoning in the United States every year, 350,000 hospitalizations, and 5,000 deaths. Is that a lot or a little? Well, it depends on how you look at it Picture Quote #1

There are loopholes big enough to drive trucks through. And Congress needs to take a look at those laws and make sure that they’re much more rigorous Picture Quote #1

One way in which we can encourage the Chinese government to take more vigorous action to control food safety in their country is by just saying we’re not going to buy Chinese foods until they get their system cleaned up. Admittedly it’s a difficult system to get under control because an astonishing percentage - maybe 80 percent - of the foods in China are produced in small backyard operations Picture Quote #1

I live in the United States, and I’m not moving. But from the standpoint of food safety, the countries in Scandinavia do it better than we do. It’s not that they don’t have food-poisoning incidents; it’s that there are many fewer in proportion to the population Picture Quote #1

I am not a vegetarian. I subscribe to my own mantra: eat less, move more, eat plenty of fruits and vegetables, don’t eat too much junk food, and enjoy what you eat. Or, to summarise: eat less, eat better, move more, and get political Picture Quote #1

I follow my own advice: eat less, move more, eat lots of fruits, vegetables, and grains, and don’t eat too much junk food. It leaves plenty of flexibility for eating an occasional junk food Picture Quote #1

The general public believes that if a health claim is on the label the government backs that up, ... This sells food products, no question Picture Quote #1

Healthy, sustainable food production methods give us food that is nutritionally better and with fewer pesticides, antibiotics, and hormones Picture Quote #1

How we grow food has enormous effects on the environment - climate change as well as pollution of air, water, and soil Picture Quote #1

Once the Government Accountability Office did a review of food safety systems in other countries and found many things about those food safety systems that were better than ours [American] Picture Quote #1

Many countries have food safety systems from farm to table. Everybody involved in the food supply is required to follow standard food safety procedures. You would think that everyone involved with food would not want people to get sick from it Picture Quote #1

Meat is produced under HACCP plans. Meat and poultry are required to be produced under standard food safety plans and they have been since the mid- 90s, and there are now fewer problems with meat than there used to be. That’s on the USDA’s side Picture Quote #1

We don’t really have any that protect the food supply from farm to table. We have a food safety system that’s piecemeal, largely divided between two agencies that don’t talk to each other very much. Neither agency can enforce regulations from the farm to the table Picture Quote #1

If we have a food supply that we can’t trust, that has enormous implications for the way we view government, for the way we trust business, and for our international trade relations Picture Quote #1

Eat less, move more, eat lots of fruits and vegetables, go easy on junk foods Picture Quote #1
