![]() “Tainted” is the update of her 2007 book, “Food Safety: Old Habits, New Perspectives.” The original version had an academic bent, but “Tainted” is more in line with Entis’s original vision of making food safety accessible to the lay reader. Phyllis Entis is a retired food safety microbiologist. Entis shows that everyone - government regulators, farmers, ranchers, food processors, food service workers, retailers, educators and consumers - are needed to accomplish this herculean task. Whether it’s Salmonella in eggs, listeria in deli meats, melamine in milk or Cyclospora in lettuce, “Tainted” illustrates that everyone has a responsibility to ensure that the food we eat is as safe as we can make it. ![]() I had the chance to read the book this past December and talk with Entis about it. As Entis puts it, “the food preparation skills we learned from our parents and grandparents are no longer good enough to keep us safe.” Phyllis Entis “Tainted” tells readers that when it comes to food safety, conventional wisdom isn’t always enough. The cronobacter outbreak has sickened at least five infants, killing two, and has been linked to Similac, Alimentum, and EleCare infant formulas recalled Abbott Nutrition. The book is particularly topical as the first chapter talks about Cronobacter sakazakii, a dangerous bacterium that has caused an ongoing outbreak. ![]() ![]() ![]() Phyllis Entis’s new book “Tainted” is now available as an audiobook. ![]()

Ostensibly a utopia, this new world order isn't entirely new its blueprint is drawn from the philosophies of Enlightenment thinkers such as Diderot and Voltaire, in the same way Canner's narrative frames the tale as if he were Dr. It imagines Earth in the year 2424 as a radically different place, with every facet of society reordered from top to bottom.
