The Science of Food - OLLI

Wednesday, June 26, 2024 - 9:00am to 10:30am Food Innovation Center

The mission of the Food Processing Center is to advance the food industry by aiding in technical and business development starting from an idea and continuing through ongoing market support. The Food Processing Center helps businesses understand their target market, define product concept, substitute ingredients, resolve quality issues and ensure long shelf life. Formulating a new food product can be a difficult task as the appearance, aroma, flavor and texture is critically important. You’ll get a chance to participate in a sensory panel and tour the product development labs and pilot plants. Instructor: Julie Reiling, senior consultant, Food Processing Center, UNL
