What this episode covers

The show starts with the guys revisiting one of their favorite sites, what3words (and all the bits that go along with it). They jump right into the food safety content with a conversation about apple branches being used in candy/caramel apples, and the potential food safety problems that can come with the autumn treats. Don and Ben then do a segment of ABC-CDC-CFIA+ and talk through an outbreak of salmonellosis linked to shredded pork hide and rinds (known as scrunchions in New-Found-Land, as Don pronounced it). They talk about social media approaches to food safety and then Ben walks through his favorite FDA warning letter of the week and the guys talk about feedback on dishwasher cooking, raw vs. unheated eggos and organizing in canisters. The show ends on a quick discussion of SARS-CoV-2 in wastewater and COVID outbreaks at a camp.
