Foodservice Monthly, December 2007, vol 6 #12

Foodservice Monthly asked Dawn Sweeney all the tough questions for the first woman president of the National Restaurant Association in an exclusive interview. Sweeney didn't flinch as she moved through the "full plate" of issues for the 12.8 million workers in the restaurant industry. You don't have to read too far into the news to find that the restaurant appears to be an easy target to begin the job of regulating all the ills of society -- the only one that hasn't been blamed on foodservice yet is the nuclear role of Iran. The online copy of the interview is here in our cover story

For those who read Sauce on the Side and don't know FSM , the magazine is a regional trade publication for the hospitality industry and is mailed to 18,000 foodservice professionals in Maryland, Washington DC, Virginia and Delaware.
