“Food is one of the most intimate relationships we have. At General Mills Bell Institute we are interested in what people are really doing and what they really need. We are on the journey with our consumers, making changes along the way, and making sure we are meeting modern day health & wellness trends. After all, our purpose is to “Serve the world by making food people love.” – Amy Cohn
