Keep your Mob safe from food poisoning by following these four simple steps!
Keep it clean
- Before you eat or touch your food, wash your hands, food preparation tools and the surfaces you’re preparing food on.
Cook it right
- Cook foods, especially meat and chicken until the juices run clear and the food is steaming hot.
Keep it chill
- Put any food that needs to keep cold in the fridge right away.
- Throw out cooked food that has been sitting at room temperature for more than two hours.
- Defrost and marinate food in the fridge, particularly meat.
Check the label
- Avoid eating food past it’s use by date.
- Follow storage and cooking instructions
- Ask for information about foods without packaging
