More than just a documentary, Poisoned reignited a national conversation around foodborne illness, accountability, and the devastating consequences of regulatory gaps. In this powerful session, key figures behind the movement return to the stage to reflect on how far we've comeāand how far we still have to go.
This no-holds-barred panel will explore the lingering challenges in food safety reform, including why outbreaks persist, what systemic barriers hinder meaningful change, and how science, policy, and consumer advocacy can come together to shape a safer, more transparent food system. Attendees will gain unfiltered insight into the human impact of food safety failures, the role of public pressure, and the urgent need for bold action to prevent the next crisis.
