    Foodini’s CEO, COO on Food-Allergen Disclosure

    A significant challenge of allergen disclosure is that ingredient information is fragmented and frequently changing, while supply-chain tracking isn’t where it needs to be, Foodini cofounder and COO Erica Anderman tells Bloomberg Intelligence in this episode of the Choppin’ It Up podcast. Anderman and cofounder and CEO Dylan McDonnell sit down with BI senior restaurant and foodservice analyst Michael Halen to discuss the impact of California’s new law requiring restaurant chains to disclose major food allergens and how technology can help ease the transition. They also comment on the size of the food-allergy problem, differing regulations around the globe and which states are expected to pass allergy-disclosure legislation next.
