Food Safety Talk 167: Will There Be Ninjas?

Posted on by

Don and Ben are back in their respective normal podcasting chairs and talk about the Episode 166 recording in Geneseo, Canadian Thanksgiving, cooking beef and getting together with other food safety nerds. They talk a bunch about risk management decisions and how temperatures get established. The conversation goes to a large Salmonella outbreak in Canada linked to frozen chicken things that look like they are fully cooked. They go back to Thanksgiving talk (American this time) and then how to communicate cooking times/temperatures for products that are supposed to be ready-to-eat (or look ready-to-eat) and what happens if pathogens end up in those products (like frozen ham biscuits). The show ends on some chicken washing talk.

Episode 167 can be found at iTunes or here.
