Simple as they may sound, these
rules will control, stop or destroy
the bactena responsible for food
borne illness.
Keeping food hot means cooking
food thoroughly, holding it at a hot
temperature (above 140 degrees
F.) during serving and fully
reheating stored foods. Keeping
food cold means refrigerating
perishables or leftovers promptly.
Keeping food clean means

You should keep your
refrigerator between 35 and 40
degrees Fahrenheit and your
freezer temperature should be zero
or below. Germs on food do not
multiply very fast at these tem
peratures.
When you prepare any salad
containing mayonnaise or salad
dressing, chill all the ingredients
thoroughly before you make the
salad. Refrigerate the salad after
it is prepared.
You can keep unopened vacuum
sealed packages of lunch meats in
the refrigerator for two weeks
Once you open them, wrap them
well and use them within three to
five days. Store frankfurters in
their original packages and use
them no later than one week after
the “sell by’’ date on the package.
Do not buy or use food from
leaking, bulging or dented cans or
containers. Do not taste or use food
that has a foul odor or any food that
spurts liquid when the container is
opened.
It is nearly impossible to list all
the potentially dangerous
situations. However, with common
sense you can easily practice
proper food safety.

area. Although ,some may be

should be discarded or donated to a
thrift shop.
When sorting through old sewing
patterns, ask yourself these
questions: Is the style still
