TRADING PRIVACY FOR VIRTUAL SHOPPING IS A HORRIBLE IDEA
Food and Travel Nation – TRADING PRIVACY FOR VIRTUAL SHOPPING IS A HORRIBLE IDEA
Grocery Pet Peeves
Broadcast Date: 1/22/22
The days of going to a grocery store and pushing a cart up and down the aisles are numbered. In the near future you’ll be able to put on a Virtual Reality (VR) visor, pick out the items you want, the money will be taken from your account, and the order will be delivered to your door. For this plan to work, they just need to know a little more about you for their files. Are you willing to trade what’s left of your privacy for convenience?

About the show: Food And Travel Nation with Elizabeth Dougherty is the fusion of food and travel. This fresh, compelling nationally-syndicated weekend program includes information for homesteading, traveling, gardening, taste tests, and in a twist, listeners hear what restaurant servers say about customers.
I taught cooking classes, and served as a personal chef for individuals and small parties. I consulted for restaurants and other food service organizations in menu development as well as cost saving measures. As a freelance writer, I have written hundreds of articles for many different publications. I created and developed the popular “Food and Travel Nation” page on Facebook.
In 2010, I created a light-hearted, entertaining, informative radio program, “Food And Travel Nation”. It’s a mix of everything FOOD, including guest interviews, recipes and food/restaurant related features.
With previous memberships in the International Association of Culinary Professionals, the James Beard Foundation and National Restaurant Association, I have tried to keep abreast of the current and ever-changing trends in the culinary world.
