For our November/December cover story, Frank Yiannas, the former Food and Drug Administration (FDA) deputy commissioner for food policy and response, sat down with QA Editor Jason Brill to talk about what he’s been up to in the nearly two years since he left the agency and launched his own food safety consulting firm, Smarter FY Solutions. Here, listen to exclusive clips from the interview that didn’t make it into the Q&A, as Yiannas touches upon topics like technology, the course he teaches at Michigan State University, how music relates to food safety and behavior, advice he gives others and more.
