Research Chefs Association North Central co-chair Colby Darling joins us from General Mills and shares some incredible information about considerations in process engineering and successful commercialization of food products. He also shares how to consider consumer expectations for a product and balance it with the desire to continue tweaking (formulating) a product. We get pretty detailed in product development, category management, and consumer insights.  Find your RCA regional chair at . Connect with Colby at the next event and reach out through LinkedIn.  This podcast is supported by ICON Foods. Would you like to help us keep the show on the air? Please contact us.

S3E1: General Mills' Colby Darling on Chip R&D and how to master a new food category

Happy New Year, PeasOnMoss listeners! Thank you for your continued support and encouragement. We're excited to bring you Season 3 of the podcast and to use this year to mix things up a little.  Chef Colby Darling has been working with General Mills for several years, but he keeps his restaurant experience fresh by taking advantage of business trips (with manager approval) to research food trends and discoveries and to spend time in professional kitchens whenever he can. It's a great idea to keep a pulse of the food service industry and keep your knife skills sharp.  The PeasOnMoss Podcast is supported by ICON Foods, and we invite your business to support us, too.
