So growing up, I didn't know what I wanted to be. I guess I always had an interest in science shows that kind of guided me to say, hey, maybe I can be impactful if I took on this as a career. So in college and university I took mostly science classes and that developed into me becoming a research scientist. Young Paul would be surprised at how far he has come. I would say young Paul would be very proud of the Paul today. If you really apply yourself enough, you could become whatever you want. For me, a small interest in science made me become a research scientist at one of the greatest companies in the world. My favorite Colgate product would be the product that I launched, Colgate Total Advanced Whitening. It's the best one, so go get it.

"Which produces more fizz - Pepsi, Diet Pepsi, or Pepsi Zero Sugar?" This is the research question that my 6th grader and his teammates are exploring together as part of their school science project. Learning to propose a research question, develop a hypothesis, conduct tests, and draw conclusions - a phenomenal set of tools not just for #science but for #problemsolving in general! Ramon Laguarta and PepsiCo - would you have any interest in weighing in on this? On their own initiative, these 6th graders have crafted the following letter for you and your fantastic team. In their words, "If you can help three young aspiring scientists (and maybe future #PepsiCo employees!) in our efforts, we would really appreciate it." They are looking forward to hearing from you! #pepsico #stemeducation

Where does flavour come from? Magic 🔮 , I think not. The magic stems from the people we work with everyday! ✨ I love this picture of Edlong's 'Flavour Wizards AKA Flavourists' 👨🔬 🧙♂️ 👩🔬 at our recent Edlong Flavor Solutions Global R&D Summit. Each of them shared their flavour journey and spoke about the ins and outs of flavour development, which is especially tricky when formulating dairy flavours that don't contain dairy! Day to day this group of people support the global Applications massively & we couldn't do the work we do without them, they help bring some of our wacky ideas to life! The innovative thinking & collaboration between teams is how new flavours are born. If you want to get more technical or have specific questions about flavours don't be afraid to follow & connect. We are always happy to answer questions and to share some of Edlong's magic. #flavours #edlong #flavourchemistry #chemistry #magic #foodscienceandtechnology #foodandbeverage #innovation #future #creativity #diary #peoplefirst
