Elements of Food Packaging
$135.00
Food packaging lies at the very heart of the modern food industry and very few foods are sold unpackaged. Good packaging prevents waste and ensures that the food retains its desired quality throughout its shelf life. Despite its importance and the key role that packaging plays, it is often regarded as, at best, somewhat superfluous, and, at worst, a serious waste of resources and an environmental menace. Such views arise because, by the time most consumers come into contact with a package, its job, in many cases, is almost over.

Food Processing
$135.00
Food processing is the transformation of agricultural products into food, or of one form of food into other forms. Food processing includes many forms of processing foods, from grinding grain to make raw flour to home cooking to complex industrial methods used to make convenience foods. Some food processing methods play important roles in reducing food waste and improving food preservation, thus reducing the total environmental impact of agriculture and improving food security. Primary food processing is necessary to make most foods edible, and secondary food processing turns the ingredients into familiar foods, such as bread.
