Noteworthy quote from this episode
"I think the role that I played in the documentary was to try to make sure that if they're going to tell the story, they tell the full story. So people understand this is not just a "mild inconvenience" [...] there are some serious and grave consequences for failures in food safety." – Dr. Darin Detwiler
