PathSensors, Inc. announced today the continued expansion of its food safety business in partnership with Jody’s Popcorn of Norfolk, Virginia. Jody’s is deploying PathSensors proprietary CANARY technology in the testing of environmental samples, incoming raw materials and finished products for food pathogens.
“CANARY provides a competitive advantage to its customers due to its cost-effective, rapid and easy to use technology”, said Ted Olsen, PathSensors President. “We are delighted to announce our collaboration with Jody’s today, deploying CANARY technology in their Norfolk factory.”
Jody’s Popcorn, founded in 2005 by Jody and Alan Wagner, is a gourmet popcorn company with humble beginnings in the Virginia Beach, VA area. Determined to create a caramel corn more delicious than anything they had ever tasted, they made batch after batch, until the recipe was just right. Their motto was “Amazing or Bust.” After 53 tries, they arrived at “Amazing”—Recipe 53 Caramel Corn! Today, Jody’s Popcorn sells over 15 flavors of popcorn in specialty, boutique and grocery stores and online.
“At Jody’s, we are focused on providing the highest quality, best-tasting popcorn. We are excited to deploy PathSensors’ CANARY technology to ensure our popcorn is the best quality possible for our customers. CANARY is easy to use and provides quick results. The PathSensors’ team made implementation easy,” said Jody Wagner, Jody’s Popcorn’s President.
