Many homes and offices don't have enough room in the refrigerator to store all the foods that arrive. So make sure the hot foods are kept hot and cold foods are kept refrigerated. Plan in advance. Again, use an ice chest or cooler or take heating elements along to continue to keep food products hot. Over the past few years, there have been many highly publicized outbreaks of food borne illnesses that have heightened the public's awareness of food safety.
Education can play a key role in protecting consumers from such illnesses.
