| | Food technology - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | The founding of the Institute of Food Technologists in 1970 has led to the general use of the term, “food technologist.” By 1945, the original four departments that had taught the subject under different names had changed their departmental titles to food science or food science and technology or some variant of these. | | | Food Technology is the application of food science to the selection, preservation, processing, packaging, distribution, and use of safe, nutritious, and wholesome food. | | | The process wasn’t called canning then and Appert did not really know the principle on which his process worked, but canning has had a major impact on food preservation techniques. |
