Summer is perfect for cookouts and backyard gatherings, but the combination of heat and outdoor dining can increase the risk of food-borne illnesses. To keep your gatherings safe, here are some essential tips:
Prevent Cross-Contamination
- Keep raw and cooked foods separate to avoid contamination.
Smart Shopping
- Purchase meat and poultry last during your shopping trip, and unpack them first when you get home.
Cook Thoroughly
- Ensure that poultry is fully cooked. Even rare meat should reach an internal temperature of at least 140°F.
Explore Cranberry Benefits
- Cranberries are not only delicious but also may help reduce the growth of harmful bacteria like Salmonella and E. coli. Adding cranberries to your food prep might be a natural way to prevent contamination in the future.
