Now that summer is on it’s way, and picnics, warmer weather and cookouts abound, it’s a good time to brush up on food safety. Most food-borne illness can be prevented by proper handling, cooking and storing of food (none of which increase our tax-burden!).
The Partnership for Food Safety Education has a very easy-to-understand site for food safety tips. I particularly like the Mythbusters section. There are also plenty of downloads and some kids activities.
The American Meat institute also has a site that includes sections on safe handling of meat and FAQs about production and processing practices.
For those of you with a little more political bent, the Grocery Manufacturer’s Association launched a new site; foodsafety.org. This one is targeted more toward FDA funding, federal legislation and current food safety news stories.
