Introduction

Humanity's focus on food and water security remains one of its most important tasks in the twenty-first century,[1][2][3] particularly in the face of growing concerns about the negative ramifications of climate change.[4][5] Without a continued focus on food and water security—including all the quality and safety assurances that come with it—many elements of the world population face a grim reality of insufficient food, limited access to clean water, and malnutrition.[1][6]

In contrast to these stark realities (which are just as much about agricultural practices, societal and governmental practices, public health practices, and human approaches to climate change), much has admittedly improved in the way we ensure food and beverage security and safety, at least compared to times prior to the twentieth century. In fact, the laboratory and the science practiced in it have arguably played a significant role in better ensuring safe, quality food and beverages in our lives. However, the laboratory is only one part of an otherwise "complex adaptive system of governance"[7] that is food safety, which in turn is only one part of a larger system dedicated to food and water security.

This brief topical article will examine how modern society benefits from a food and beverage testing laboratory. It will turn to history, statistical data, and description of the roles such labs play, demonstrating their overall value.
