JOINT NEW YORK & NUTMEG IFT DINNER MEETING
Thursday, May 9, 2019 “The Role of Nutrient Profiling to Inform
Innovation and Transformation in the Food Industry”
Marianne O’Shea, Ph.D.
Vice President Nutrition Sciences - PepsiCo
PepsiCo, 700 Anderson Hill Rd, Purchase, NY
Networking 5pm | Speaker 6pm | Dinner 7pm Photo I.D. Required
Internal nutrition profiling schemes are needed by industry as a guide for product development to enable portfolio expansion while reducing nutrients of concern and increasing nutrients of need on a global scale. To enable PepsiCo to meet health goals aiming to reduce added sugars, saturated fats, and sodium in the diet and to provide consumers with choices that enable them to meet their nutrition goals, a set of rigorous nutrition criteria were developed. PepsiCo Nutrition Criteria (PNC) is the nutrition guideline schemes used by the company as a compass to guide new product development and renovate/reformulate existing products in our portfolio. While the criteria are used internally, they are based on dietary and nutrient recommendations from the leading external global nutrition and public health authorities.
Dr. Marianne O’Shea is Vice President of Global Nutrition Sciences for PepsiCo, leading a dynamic team of nutrition experts to guide the nutrition strategy fueling PepsiCo’s innovation and portfolio transformation through nutrition science. Dr. O’Shea and her team collaborate with internal cross functional teams and business units worldwide to implement nutrition and health science programs that capitalize on our strengths and address gaps in PepsiCo’s portfolio.

Cranbury Golf Course 49 Southfield Road, W Windsor Township, New Jersey 08550
Join your friends, colleagues, and invite your customers for a fun day at the Cranbury Golf Course in W Windsor Township, NJ. Cranbury Golf Club is truly a memorable experience! From the first tee to the 18th green, Cranbury’s Championship Course offers a challenging, yet player-friendly experience. The course offers excellent course conditions year round, built in 1964 by Gary Rhenn and recently redesigned to include all new green-side bunkers. Cranbury is a classic-style golf course featuring small undulating greens that are well bunkered. Unique to Cranbury are the six par 3s. From the par-3 fourth hole, which plays to a yardage of 225 yards over water, to the 12th hole, that, at 155 yards over the “Bog” offers players some of the best three shot holes in the area. Don’t let the par 70 deceive you because the course still plays well over 6,200 yards.

RUTGERS UNIVERSITY – STUDENT UPDATE
Written by: Kevin Tveter – NYIFT Student Representative
This year the IFT Student Association (IFTSA) Chapter at Rutgers University strived to embody the characteristics that exemplify the IFTSA as a whole; through morality, selflessness and by fostering a sense of community within and outside the greater metropolitan area. On campus, the Rutgers IFTSA assisted at the Rutgers University Scarlet Day of service and periodically during the year and summer at the Rutgers Gardens, working to rebuild our communities' wildlife and infrastructure on College Avenue. Off campus, our members have spread the awareness of the food science discipline to surrounding schools, namely at the 2019 Chester Science Fair, where we were provided the opportunity to demonstrate several concepts of food chemistry to K-8 grade students. In addition to our advances in community service, our IFTSA Chapter sought to refine itself by merging our undergraduate and graduate food science clubs into a collective body. By accomplishing this goal, our chapter has invigorated its competitive flair and entered all National IFT Product Development competitions and submitted applications for Feeding Tomorrow scholarships. A team from Rutgers made it to the finals for USDA's Smart Snacks Competition. Regardless of our achievements, Rutgers IFTSA chapter prides itself on our hardworking student members, talented professors, and supportive administration. It has been an honor to serve as Chapter leader, encourage undergraduate students to serve as chairs for their respective product development teams, and facilitate the progression of our chapter into a united organization.
