After 26 years and 15,287 posts on barfblog.com , food safety communications expert Dr. Doug Powell is retiring.
He has continued his postings of food safety information from around the world.
And in his retirement post today, he wonders whether colleague Ben Chapman in North Carolina will continue barfblog.com .
Powell has been fearless in calling out those in authority who have failed to protect the public by being careful about food safety.
He has been dismissed, or pushed out, by the University of Guelph and the University of Kentucky.
He has continued his crusade for food safety from Australia.
In his farewell, he wrote “I did my best, even when my best wasn’t good enough.
“I still love it – I haven’t been paid in over two years — but someone else should be in charge.”
