Picnics should mean fun-filled days, but some don’t turn out that way as unwelcome “guests” are on the scene. The most un welcome guest at a picnic comes right from the wicker basket or picnic hamper. It’s food poisoning and the picnickers bring it along themselves! Occasionally you read of cases of food poisoning resulting from commercially processed foods. But this is not the main source of food poisoning. Carol Rothermel, Chester County Extension home economist, says that the largest majority of food poisoning out breaks can be traced to mishandling of food right in your own home. Food poisoning bacteria thrive in temperatures between 40 and 120 degrees. That’s what makes picnic foods a prime target. And it means that summer is the most important time to stress food safety. The best safeguard against food poisoning is YOU, reminds Mrs. Rothermel. From the time You buy the foods until you and your family and friends consume them, proper and careful han dling is extremely important for safety. Your food safety campaign should begin at the grocery store. Cleanliness of the store is im portant to all your shopping. Buy your groceries and promptly take them home and refrigerate the perishable foods. Do those other errands before you shop for food Soap and water remain im portant to food safety. Wash your hands well before handling foods Don’t just give them a rinse Use clean utensils and wash the cutting board before slicing or chopping food on it Keep hot foods hot and cold foods cold before serving especially on picnics. If you cook a food such as fried chicken before the outing, either keep the chicken quite hot in an insulated carrier or cool it quickly in the refrigerator. Spread the pieces out on the dish or platter so all the pieces have a chance for fast cooling. Keep the chicken cold until ready to eat or reheat well right before serving. If you are taking raw meat on your outing to cook at the site, do so only if you 786 8231 786 7351 Lancaster Farming, Saturday. June 30,1973 can keep the meat cold, perhaps starting with frozen meat. Use a well insulated cooler. Mrs. Rothermel advises that it’s better to leave the actual preparation of any sandwiches until you are ready to use them. Mix salads just before serving. Mayonnaise and salad dressings are particularly susceptible to bacteria. All items should be chilled well before going into the cooler. If you don’t have a well in sulated container capable of keeping cold and hot foods at proper temperatures, then plan to use only non-perishable foods for your outdoor eating, advises Mrs. Rothermel. Creamed dishes, custards and various other egg dishes, stuf fings and chopped meats and sandwich fillings are quick to be homes for the bacteria if they are not handled properly. If you don’t have, or aren’t sure you have proper cooling storage, then reserve these foods for “at home” eating. There are many other foods instead that make delicious and safe eating for the picnic season. This product and other ‘P'loducte PnoytcM’ available in the [/ Northeast from. NEWFIELD, M.
