Cross-contamination • Transfer of harmful microorganisms from one item of food to another by either: • Food contact sources • Raw food to cooked food
Food-contact Surfaces • Items that food either touches or comes in contact
Hands Cutting boards Countertops Dishcloths Dish towels Sinks utensils Refrigerator shelves and drawers Dishes Cross-contamination Sources
According to FDA and USDA • ¼ of main meal cooks do not wash their hands after handling raw meat and fish • 2/3 of main meal cooks do not wash their hands after handling raw eggs
Second way of cross contamination is when ready-to-eat food comes into contact • Raw meat juices drip onto the food in the refrigerator • Keep raw meat in bottom shelf in a container • Leftover marinades need to be discarded
How to Avoid Cross-contamination • When grocery shopping… • Separate raw meats, poultry and seafood from other items in your cart • Place raw meat products in separate plastic bags from other food
2. When refrigerating food • Place raw meat, poultry, and seafood in sealed containers to prevent juices from leaking • Store all raw meat on the bottom shelf of the refrigerator to prevent juices from contaminating other foods
3. Avoiding Cross-contamination • Keep hands and work area surfaces clean and sanitized • Wash hands with soap and hot water before and after handling any food or other contaminated food • Wear clean clothing • Clean up spills immediate with hot soapy water and paper towels • Wash cutting boards, dishes, and counter tops with hot soap water before and after each use
4. When using Cutting Boards… • Always use a clean cutting board • Use one cutting board for fresh produce and a separate one for raw meat products • Replace cutting boards that have become worn and have developed har-to-clean grooves
5. When marinating foods… • Marinate in the refrigerator, never on the counter • Never use marinade from raw meat products on cooked foods
6. When serving foods… • Never put cooked food onto a plate that previously held uncooked food
7. When storing leftovers… • Store in a clean covered container to prevent bacterial growth • Refrigerate or freeze leftovers within 2 hours
Clams added to Pacific Northwest shellfish warning • URL of this page: http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/news/fullstory_37292.html (*this news item will not be available after 11/12/2006) • Monday, August 14, 2006 • WASHINGTON (Reuters) - U.S. health officials added a warning about clams on Friday to their caution against eating raw oysters from the Pacific Northwest following more reports of stomach sickness caused by bacteria from the shellfish. • Seventy-two illnesses linked to contaminated oysters and clams were reported from May 20 through July 31, the Food and Drug Administration said. Another 105 probable cases were recorded during the same time period. • The illnesses were reported in Washington state, Oregon and New York, FDA officials said. • Either shellfish should be thoroughly cooked before eating, FDA officials advised. • Cooking can kill the Vibrio parahaemolyticus (Vp) bacterium linked to the sickness. Vp can cause mild stomach illness in healthy people and serious illness in the elderly or others with weak immune systems. • Symptoms, including diarrhea, abdominal cramps, nausea, vomiting, fever and chills, usually start within 24 hours and last no more than three days. • People who have those symptoms after eating clams or oysters should contact a doctor and their local health department, the FDA said. • Vp occurs naturally in oysters and clams, but levels rise when water temperatures are warmer, officials said. • The FDA advisory follows a July 31 warning against eating raw oysters from the Pacific Northwest.
