Welcome to San Francisco and the 5th International Symposium on Deep-Fat Frying. This is the first North American program that the Euro Fed Lipid has organized. We sincerely hope that this will be an opportunity for the leaders in the area of deep-fat frying to meet and share their knowledge and experiences. Frying and fried foods have come under fire in recent years because of the types of oils that are used and their possible contribution to the obesity epidemic. The industry has responded to these concerns by working to utilize healthier oils and manufacturing products that are lower in calories. We believe that this program will provide insights into how we, as industry, can continue to meet the needs of consumers by producing products that are healthier and safer.

Rick Stier, Congress Chair
