FOOD SAFETY

USE IT OR LOSE IT?

It is very important to make sure that food is cooked and stored properly. When food is not cooked to the correct temperature, or if it is not stored or handled properly, it can cause severe digestive problems, and could even send you to the doctor. A few simple precautions can save a lot of time, and money in wasted food. The information below and to the left will answer the question "Is your food ready for the table, or the trash?".
