Links to all the goodies, all in one place
My mission is to keep you up to date without overloading your inbox, so I spend my weeks trawling through thousands of industry news items and mainstream media posts, looking for the most interesting, relevant and helpful food safety and food fraud news for you.
Paying subscribers support my efforts to find the best content and deliver original, focused, ad-free food information. ❤Paying subscribers are brilliant❤ This newsletter is not possible without you!

Food Fraud Incident Reports
Paying subscribers get food fraud incident reports straight to their inboxes each week. We also publish a private webpage with a complete list of the same incidents so they are accessible all in one place whenever you need them, exclusively for paying subscribers and with sources included.
Past Issues e-Books
Catch up on your favourite topics the old-fashioned way, by downloading and printing past issues to read offline. We publish a compilation of past issues twice per year, as an e-book, with hundreds of pages of fascinating and helpful food safety and food fraud information. Only for paying subscribers.
Price Freeze
Did you know?! If our prices go up, existing subscribers’ fees do not increase. That’s right, if you are a paying subscriber, your monthly or annual fees are immune from price rises.
If we increase subscription fees the new price only applies to new subscribers, your rate won’t change.
Audio Archive
Audio versions of Issues 30 to 122 are available exclusively to paying subscribers from our Audio Archive page.
