Dr. Marion Nestle
9 PM Eastern Time in the Auditorium
 Dr. Marion Nestle is one of the leading voices in the movement to reform how we deal with food and nutrition in this country. She is the Paulette Goddard professor of nutrition, food studies, and public health at New York University and a visiting professor in the College of Agriculture's nutritional sciences division at Cornell University. She branched out into covering pet food issues with her book about the 2007 pet food recall, "Pet Food Politics."

Dr. Nestle recently visited the FDA's Center for Veterinary Medicine, and will be joining us to talk about her impressions of the agency, whether safe food -- for us or our pets! -- is possible, and about her forthcoming book about feeding pets in America.

Interviewing Dr. Nestle will be Christie Keith, who has a few stories of her own to tell about the FDA and pet health and safety. Dr. Nestle will be joining us via streaming audio, and you'll be able to comment and ask questions in our text-based chat room.

Hello! This is a note to remind you that our 11th Annual Chat Month will kick off with a guest chat with Dr. Marion Nestle and Dr. Mal Nesheim, and to invite you to submit questions in advance to be answered by them. The last two years have made us all What Pets Eat phchristy@pethobbyist.com Hello!

This is a note to remind you that our 11th Annual Chat Month will kick off with a guest chat with Dr. Marion Nestle and Dr. Mal Nesheim, and to invite you to submit questions in advance to be answered by them.

The last two years have made us all acutely aware that all is not as it should be when it comes to the safety and wholesomeness of our food supply.

One of the leading voices in the movement to reform how we deal with food and nutrition in this country is bestselling author Dr. Marion Nestle, the Paulette Goddard professor of nutrition, food studies, and public health at New York University and a visiting professor in the College of Agriculture's nutritional sciences division at Cornell University.

Dr. Nestle wrote a book about the 2007 pet food recall, "Pet Food Politics," and then went on to write a second book, not yet published, with retired animal nutritionist, professor of nutritional sciences and provost emeritus at Cornell University Dr. Mal Nesheim.

Called "What Pets Eat," it's the dog and cat equivalent of her bestselling book about human nutrition, "What to Eat."

We're very honored that Dr. Nestle and Dr. Nesheim have agreed to be our guests Sunday evening, and we hope to see a lot of you there!

If you have questions, you'll have a chance to ask them during the chat, but they'll have a greater chance of being answered if you email them to me in advance at phchristy@pethobbyist.com.

You can get a link to the chat room and more information here:

There are many more chats during February, and you can view them all there as well.

We'll see you Sunday evening! Tell your friends!

And we'll use this list to send out a transcript when the chat is over, for those who can't make it.
