BE FOOD SMART: CFI's Six Safe Food Practices
The best way to ensure safe food is to prevent food from becoming contaminated. People can help reduce – but not eliminate – the risk of foodborne illness by following CFI’s Six Safe Food Practices.
CFI's first 5 safe food practices are based on the World Health Organization's Five Keys to Safer Food.
CFI has also added a 6th practice -- report foodborne illness -- so that researchers can increase their understanding about the sources, trends, health outcomes and preventive strategies related to foodborne disease.
Food safety is everyone’s responsibility!
Eat safe! Eat Smart!
- Use safe water and food
