People often talk about the food supply chain, but in reality it isn't a chain at all. The food system today-that is, the way we get our food from farm to tablehas evolved into a complex network that is interdependent on many entities. And while there is no question that today's food system provides consumers with a more diverse, convenient, and economical source of food, it also presents new challenges. For example, in today's food system, the output from one ingredient producer could end up in thousands of products on a grocery store shelf. We saw evidence of this during the peanut butter Salmonella outbreak in 2008 and the E. coli illnesses caused by contaminated flour in 2016.
