1 Preparing & Serving Safe Food
FOOD SAFETY Preparing & Serving Safe Food
2 Foodborne Illness (aka food poisoning)
People can get sick if the food they eat has harmful chemicals or germs. This is called foodborne illness. Most foodborne
illnesses are either food poisonings or foodborne infections. Chemicals, bacteria, or certain foods like poisonous
mushrooms can cause food poisoning. Symptoms of food poisoning are usually noticed within hours after eating, and
often include vomiting.
3 Foodborne Illness The most common foodborne illnesses, however, are not caused by food poisoning. They are
foodborne infections caused by germs that grow in food or inside of our bodies. Symptoms of foodborne infections
include diarrhea, vomiting, fever, headache, and stomach aches; they may be noticed from several hours to several weeks
after eating the food.
4 Foodborne Illness The Centers for Disease Control estimates that about 76 million Americans get sick and up to 5,000
people die each year from unsafe food.
5 Who’s more at risk? Highly Susceptible Populations
While anyone can get sick from eating food, certain people are most at risk… Younger than 5
Older than 65 Pregnant Immune-compromised
6 Highly Susceptible Individuals
These foods increase the risk of highly susceptible people getting sick. • undercooked meats • raw
oysters undercooked eggs • sprouts • unpasteurized milk or juices
What are the foods that can make me sick?
Potentially Hazardous Foods include: Animal Products • Meat, fish, poultry, seafood, eggs • Dairy
products Cooked Starches • Cooked rice, beans, pasta, potatoes Fruits and Vegetables • Cooked
vegetables, tofu, sprouts (such as alfalfa or bean sprouts) cut melons & garlic or herbs bottled in
oil
8 Biological Hazards Germs that cannot be seen without a microscope
Parasites Parasites in food are usually tiny worms that live in fish, pork, or meat. They can be
killed if frozen or cooked to the right temperatures. Different kinds of parasites may be found in
contaminated water. To keep your food safe from parasites: • cook all pork, beef, and fish to the
proper temperatures • use fish that has been treated to kill parasites for raw dishes like sushi • use
approved sources of water
9 Biological Hazards Viruses Although viruses are small, it only
takes a few to make you sick. Unlike parasites, viruses are not
destroyed by freezing. Viruses are spread from people coughing
or sneezing. The viruses that we get through food usually come
from the unclean hands of someone that touched our food.
Unfortunately, the person’s hands were probably not washed
well enough to remove germs from vomit or feces.
Biological Hazards Viruses continued…
Chicken Pox The common Cold Influenza Hepatitis A
Norovirus To keep your food safe from viruses: • do not work
with food when you have diarrhea, vomiting, or fever • wash
your hands twice after using the toilet – once in the restroom,
and then again when you get back in the kitchen • use gloves or
utensils instead of bare hands when handling ready-to-eat food
11 Biological Hazards Bacteria Unlike viruses, bacteria can grow in food.
They are found everywhere and can grow when food workers are not careful about time, temperature and cleanliness.
Bacteria can spoil food or cause foodborne illness. Bacteria that cause foodborne illness come from sources like soil,
animals, raw meat, and people. Although they can come from lots of places, these bacteria usually only grow in certain
foods.
12 Bacteria continued… The food bacteria grows best in are called
POTENTIALLY HAZARDOUS FOODS. Keep potentially hazardous foods hot or cold to keep bacteria from growing. To
keep your food safe from bacteria: • keep potentially hazardous foods out of the Danger Zone (41°F-140°F) • do not work
with food when you are ill (diarrhea, vomiting, or fever) • wash your hands twice after using the toilet use gloves or
utensils instead of bare hands when handling ready-to-eat food • wash, rinse, and sanitize all equipment used for food
preparation
Potentially Hazardous Foods
14 A couple of other Hazards
Physical Hard or soft objects in food that can cause injury. Examples include broken glass, jewelry, adhesive bandages,
staples, and fingernails. Chemical Poisonous substances that occur naturally or are added during food handling. Examples
include cleaning agents, pesticides, and certain metals.
15 Top 3 Ways to keep Food Safe
Good Personal Hygiene Cook & Hold Food at the Proper Temperatures Prevent Cross Contamination
16 Keep it out of My Food! Long hair must be tied back, covered with a hat or in a hair net. Fingernails need to be
kept short & unpainted. (If nails are fake or painted gloves should be worn) Watches, rings, bracelets, and all other
jewelry on the arms or hands should be removed. Aprons must be worn at all times in the kitchen. Personal items
like medicine, coats, and purses must be stored away from food.
Hand washing Washing your hands often is the most important thing you can do to keep germs out of your body
and out of the food you prepare. before you begin handling food after using the toilet (twice) after handling raw
meat, fish, or poultry after handling garbage or dirty dishes after taking a break, eating, smoking, or touching your
hair after sneezing, coughing, or blowing the nose after handling animals or using chemicals
