Did You Know?

There is no such thing as the 24 hour flu; it's food poisoning.

You cannot make food safe just by boiling the heck out of it; the most common toxin found in food cannot be destroyed by heat.

Chickens that carry Salmonella or cows that carry E. coli are not sick; these bacteria occur naturally in them just like other bacteria live in people.

To bacteria, tofu and cooked beans are just as tasty as chicken and spareribs.

Bacteria don't have taste buds so hot & spicy sauces don't affect them; only thermal heat or chemicals can destroy them.

Marinating foods in alcohol or vinegar doesn't prevent bacteria from growing in them.

Freezing doesn't kill bacteria.

Food handlers are the main source of contamination of foods that cause outbreaks of food poisoning. Oops! That would be you and me.

and so much more.....

we haven't even touched on your dishcloth yet!

Don't Worry! It's easy to prevent food poisoning once you know what to look for.
