No one wants a burger with a side of salmonella or a taco topped with E. coli, but that's what you can get when food isn't prepared correctly. This program describes common - and serious - food -borne illnesses, how they're spread, and how they can be prevented through careful food handling and proper food preparation. Salmonella, Campylobacter jejuni, Escherichia coli, and shigella are discussed, along with botulism, listeriosis, and viruses like hepatitis A. Tips for selecting safe food at the market and the optimal temperatures for cooking meats and eggs are covered as well.
