Aug/Sept Food Safety Brief

Posted on September 2, 2015November 2, 2015

September is National Food Safety Education Month! FRLA and SafeStaff are celebrating National Food Safety Month along with the Florida Restaurant and Lodging Magazine. Check out this year’s Food Safety Edition of the Magazine. Articles range from food safety for buffets, DNA Sequencing in Florida to Crisis Communications Planning, Seafood Choice, and more on Allergens. In addition, you can find out how FRLA’s Regulatory Compliance Services’ employee Victor Konters offered his advice and service to the 2015 National Food Safety Summit.
Cyclopora is Happening: Hundreds of people in the US have been sickened with Cyclospora, a parasite that causes symptoms such as stomach cramps, nausea, bloating, and more. Serious complications may occur as well. Read more about Cyclospora at the Food Poison Journal.

Pre-Washed Spinach Still Needs to Be Rinsed Before Using: While in so many cases, produce is sold to restaurants as pre-washed and ready-to-eat without further preparation, it is always best to take the extra step and clean all produce as if it has not been pre-washed. The “topography” of the produce seems to be a factor in whether or not pathogens have been removed. Read the Food Safety News to find out more.
