The newest food safety infosheet, a graphical one-page food safety-related story directed at food handlers, is now available at foodsafetyinfosheets.ksu.edu.
Infosheet highlights:
The nationwide Muse and My Chemical Romance tour was brought to a halt this past weekend after band members were struck with food poisoning.
The bands were in Williamsburg, Virginia last Sunday for a concert at William and Mary college, when 16 members from both bands and crews became severely ill.
Other risk factors affecting the safety of food include: proper cooking procedures, temperature control during storage, cross contamination, poor hygiene, and purchasing food from unsafe sources.
Infosheets are created weekly by iFSN and are posted in restaurants, retail stores, on farms and used in training throughout the world. If you have any infosheet topic requests, or photos, please contact Ben Chapman at bchapman@uoguelph.ca
