Author name: Meera Jacob

I’m a Food Safety Officer and Food Technologist with a deep-rooted passion for food safety systems, audits, and risk analysis. What started as a simple love for writing and sharing my food industry experiences slowly grew into something bigger—FoodTechSafety. FoodTechSafety began as a personal blog where I translated real-world food safety challenges, non-conformances, and compliance requirements into easy-to-understand articles for professionals and students. As the community grew, so did the vision. Today, FoodTechSafety has evolved into a knowledge and membership platform supporting food safety professionals with practical content, job insights, industry guidance, and real-life learning from the field. With over 5 years of hands-on experience in food safety auditing, quality control, and technical content development, I enjoy bridging the gap between regulations and reality. Auditing food safety systems, observing shop-floor practices, and working on non-conformances genuinely excite me—because that’s where food safety truly comes alive. I believe the food industry can only flourish when food safety is its strongest foundation. Through FoodTechSafety, my mission is to educate, empower, and connect food safety professionals who are passionate about building safer food systems—one audit, one article, and one improvement at a time. Happy Food Safetying to all Food Safety Professionals!
