That includes the Food and Drug Administration, which keeps watch on about 80 percent of everything we eat. Then we check in on CES in Las Vegas, where Marketplace Tech’s Molly Wood is taking in the biggest tech showcase of the year. We also update the tumultuous economic situation in Venezuela as its president begins his second term. Today's show is sponsored by Indeed , U.S. Postal Service  and Wasabi Hot Cloud Storage .
