SUMMER COOKOUTS ARE A TIME FOR FAMILY, FOOD, AND FUN; THEY'RE NO PLACE FOR FOOD-BORNE ILLNESSES TO SPOIL OUR GOOD TIMES. UNSAFE FOOD HANDLING AT HOME IS A MAJOR CAUSE OF FOOD CONTAMINATION. WITH FOOD SAFETY A GROWING CONCERN AMONG CONSUMERS, TODAY'S PLASTICS MAKE IT EASY TO KEEP SOME FOOD-SAFETY "DO'S" AND "DON'TS" IN MIND. HEALTH AND SAFETY CERTAINLY ARE IMPORTANT IN THE KITCHEN--AND FOOD SAFETY IS SOMETHING WE HAVE TO TAKE SERIOUSLY. YOU ALWAYS WANT TO KEEP TWO PLASTIC NON-POROUS CUTTING BOARDS ON HAND: ONE JUST FOR YOUR RAW MEATS, AND THEN ONE FOR THINGS LIKE FRUITS AND VEGETABLES. YOU ALSO WANT TO DO THINGS LIKE FREQUENT HAND-WASHING, AND KEEPING SURFACES WIPED CLEAN AFTER THEY'VE BEEN USED TO PREPARE FOOD. TO LEARN MORE ABOUT SUMMER-COOKOUT FOOD-SAFETY, LOG ON TO "AMERICAN-PLASTICS-COUNCIL"-DOT-ORG.
