Evolving food safety issues, including new concerns around the handling and use of CBD and plant based proteins, were key areas of discussion at the 14th annual Nation’s Restaurant News Food Safety Symposium this fall.

The event, sponsored by Ecolab, drew three dozen operators, educators and attorneys to the Park MGM hotel in Las Vegas Sept. 22 through Sept. 24.

The event featured regulatory and research updates, keynote speeches, operator presentations and attendee roundtable discussions. In addition to in-depth discussions on the impact of trending products such CBD and plant-based protein, attendees also shared tips for effective training and best practices to safeguard delivery orders once they leave the premises.
