In the coming weeks, we’ll release the New Era of Smarter Food Safety blueprint – a plan to create a more digital, traceable, and safer food system #FDAVoices https://t.co/Sm47PUAptR?amp=1
Pandemic challenges have made it clear that the actions called for in the blueprint will strengthen how we approach the safety & security of the food supply, not just in the normal course of events but especially in times of crisis #FDAVoices

@FrankYiannasFDA

A New Era of Smarter Food Safety is an idea whose time has come. One that is well-equipped to protect the safety & security of our food supply no matter what challenges we face. We will get there TOGETHER, stronger & more resilient than ever. https://fda.gov/news-events/fda-voices/pandemic-challenges-highlight-importance-new-era-smarter-food-safety @SteveFDA https://t.co/Sm47PUAptR?amp=1

Amazing sight in PA last week: 1,000 cars lined up to receive healthy, nutritious, fresh food to take home to their families. Great work done by the Westmoreland County Foodbank & all their volunteers distributing @USDA’s Farmers 2 Families Food Boxes. This is the best of America
RT @USDA_AMS:
Through the Farmers to Families Food Box: “The USDA put it out as a way to help both communities who are affected by the COVID-19 situation, as well as the farmers, so it’s a really good mutually beneficial program.”
“For its fast-acting, innovation, generosity and efficiency in regards to responding to the potential of Americans’ food insecurity during this crisis, you have to give Team Trump and the @USDA an A plus on this one.”
