The Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) of the United Nations (UN) issued a report on the importance and complexities associated with feeding the projected 9.1 billion world population in 2050. Sustainable production of safe and nutritious foods, development of foods that have a long shelf life and foods that are either ready-to-eat or easy to are of greater importance towards meeting this goal. Understanding “Food Engineering” and “Thermal Processing of Foods” serves as basic requirement means of meeting this goal.
