I continue to provide professional Food Safety Manager Training using the ServSafe exams and books. I encourage everyone to do a quick review of food safety at home, at work, and at play during this season. I encourage you to pack your own lunches and picnics but also to think about insulated containers with ice blocks or frozen water bottles. Whatever you pack at home if eaten within 3-4 hours of making it with fresh cold ingredients will be safe. The hotter the temperatures where you live the shorter the time or better the packaging needed.
Another thought is to think about how many high acid foods can be incorporated into the foods you pack. Lemons, vinegars, some tomatoes and pickled foods make great choices. Fresh fruits in natures packaging like orangs, apples and bananas. Washed veggies like carrots, broccoli, cucumbers, zucchini, cauliflower, jicama, and more. I think my veggie intake goes up when out which is great! I truly believe that real food not supplements is the best for us. I definitely find it most satisfying and filling.
Buen provecho, Elsa
