JBF on the Air: Miriam Arond

On last week’s episode of Taste Matters, JBF’s Mitchell Davis was joined by Miriam Arond, director of the Good Housekeeping Research Institute. Founded in 1900, before there was an FDA, GHRI is the foremost consumer products evaluation laboratory in the country. To learn how GHRI tests products and recipes, the history of Good Housekeeping magazine and its work in food advocacy, and how the roles of women and food have changed over the past century, listen to the full episode.

Taste Matters is a radio program dedicated to taste: as a sense, cultural construct, and culinary phenomenon. However much we talk about where our food comes from, how it’s produced, who prepares it, or what sorts of socio-cultural-political implications our food choices and eating behaviors have, taste is fundamental.

You can catch Taste Matters with Mitchell Davis live every Wednesday at 11:00 A.M. on Heritage Radio Network, or listen to the show afterwards right here on our blog. To check out past episodes, click here. Stay tuned for more!
