Celebrate National Picnic Month with Food Safety in Mind! 🧺☀️ It is the perfect time to enjoy outdoor meals with family and friends. However, warm summer temperatures can cause harmful bacteria to grow quickly, increasing the risk of foodborne illness.
Keep your picnic safe by following these simple tips:
Clean: Wash hands before preparing and eating food.
Separate: Keep raw meats away from ready-to-eat foods.
Cook: Use a food thermometer to ensure foods are cooked safely.
Chill: Keep perishable foods cold in an insulated cooler with ice packs.
Remember: Don’t leave perishable foods out for more than 2 hours (or 1 hour if it’s above 90°F).
Enjoy National Picnic Month with safe, healthy, and delicious outdoor meals! Like our Berry Fruit Skewers!
