What happens to food between the farm and the fork? Take this video field trip inside food processing plants to learn how food makers put real strawberries in cereal boxes, create potato chips with just the right crunch, make a beef roast ready to heat, mill wheat into flour, make cheese, and can food. Viewers learn the scientific foundations for freeze drying, flash freezing, vacuum cooking, canning, and see how enzymes work. Viewers learn that most food processing techniques go back a hundred years or more. Take your students behind the normally closed doors to show what happens to the food they eat.
