A recent new reason to practice good food safety principles
The increase in media attention and coverage.
concept of management
getting activities completed efficiently and effectively with and through other people
Main objective of food safety training on food premises
to improve working practices by changing staff behavior and attitude
Four stages of training
Motivate, teach, supervise, test
Contamination
presence of physical, chemical, or biological matter in the food environment.
Biological Contamination
Bacteria, Viruses, Parasites, and Fungi
Bacteria
single celled microorganism
Acidic
having a pH level less than 7.0
Aerobe
an organism that requires oxygen to multiply
anaerobe
an organism that requires the absence of oxygen to multiply
bacillus cereus
an intoxication causing bacteria commonly found in starchy food and meat food. Causes emetic (vomiting) and diarrhea.
Clostridium botulinum
deadly foodborne illness. intoxication found in soil such as root vegetables. anaerobic so can be found in canned foods.
pathogen
a disease producing organism
infection
disease caused by the release of endotoxins in the intestines of an affected person.
intoxication
illness caused when bacteria produce exotoxins that are released into food. short onset
spore
a resistant resting phase of bacteria protecting them against adverse conditions such as high temperatures
Viruses
microscopic pathogens that multiply on/in the living cells of their host. Hepatitis A and Norovirus
Scrombrotoxin is associated with
Fish
Salmonella spp is reduced when
cooking food according to time and temperature guidelines
most food borne disease outbreaks are by
failure to implement good safety principles
staphylococcus
Most common bacteria associated with People.
SOURCES:Human Skin, nose, hands, boils, and cuts. Dust, Raw milk.
CFV: Milk/dairy, deli salads, desserts, custards, cooked meat/poultry.
Clostridium perfringens
SOURCES: soil, animal/human waste, dust, insects
CFV: stews, casseroles, meat pies.
Shiga Toxin - E.Coli-

SOURCES: infected workers, contaminated water
CFV: undercooked beef, contaminated produce
Vibrio
SOURCES: raw undercooked fish / shellfish
CFV: Oysters, clams, crabs, shrimp, tuna, sardines
cigua-tera toxin
associated with fish
Fungi-
molds and yeasts
parasites
plant or animal that live on or in another plant or animal (host) to survive.
molds
threadlike organisms that produce sports, cause allergic reactions, can survive freezing cooking
Yeasts
spoil food quickly, require oxygen to grow, destroyed by cooking, pink/bubbly
poisonous plants
deadly nightshade, daffodil bulbs, rhubarb.
physical contamination
anything that gets into food accidently. EX: hair, bandaid, scab, etc.
Chemical contamination
presence of unwanted chemical components in our around food environment. cleaning/sanitizing agents, pesticides, lead, copper, zinc (galvanized) mercury
intentional contamination
People: Good safety programs takes into account the most common areas of food vulnerability.
Food Allergy
the body's immune system responding to a food that it mistakenly believes is harmful
Food Allergy Symptoms
Tingling sensation in the mouth or throat, itching in and around the mouth, face, scalp, swelling, difficulty breathing.
8 main ingredients to cause 90% of allergic reactions
wheat/soy, milk/eggs, peanuts/treenuts, fish/shellfish,
Cooking Gloves
Should me worn no more than 4 hours. Every task requires a change and washing hands in between use.
Washing hands
total of 20 seconds. scrubbing of 10-15 seconds. minimum of 100 degrees, as hot as you can stand it.
Symptoms need to be reported:
Diarrhea, vomiting, fever, jaundice, open wound or lesion. By law, must report Hep A, Norovirus, Salmonella, Shigella, Ecoli. (even if had in the last 6m)
Nose, Mouth, Fingers
Do not cough or sneeze over food
Do not blow noses or bite nails by food
Do not lick fingers
When to wash hands
Before starting work
After using toilet
Upon entering food prep area
Before handling PHF/TCS
PHF
potentially hazardous food
-support the growth of foodborne illness
-high in protein
-neutral acidic ph levels
-moisture content
ex:milk, egg, poultry, fish, shellfish, sliced melons
