Foodborne illness costs the US up to $35 billion…
but it’s not really about dollars.
From the Farm to the Fork!
Germs in soil & water
• Enter the food supply on the farm
• Or… in harvesting
• Or… in processing & packaging
• Or… in food service
Meet Typhoid Mary
• A cook in the early 1900s
• Had Salmonella in her body but was not sick
• Spread Salmonella through food she prepared
• Infected more than 47 people (3 died)
• Improper handwashing spread the germs
• Lived many years in quarantine
What do you know?
• Can’t see, taste, or smell germs
• People usually get sick in 1 to 3 days, but it can be up to 6 weeks!
• Some people think they have “the flu”
• Symptoms: nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, fever, headache, body ache… even a sore throat
The “200 Club”
There are more than 200 germs that can cause foodborne illness.
“BAD GUYS”:
Bacteria
Viruses
Parasites
Molds
Chemicals
Physical objectsSalmonella bacteria
Meet the Newcomers!• Norwalk virus (Norovirus) – 1968 – school children & staff became sick in Norwalk, Ohio

• E. Coli in spinach – 2006 200 people sick; $10 million in damage to our economy
Antibiotic Resistance
Many of today’s toughest germs are “antibiotic resistant”
This means they were stressed and grew stronger
Globetrotters!
• Dangerous germs spread faster through food and people
• Now a global “germ pool”
“Sam & Ella’s” Top 5!
1 – Food from unsafe sources
2 – Undercooking food
3 – Holding at wrong temperature
4 – Contaminated equipment
5 – Poor personal hygiene
What YOU Can Do
Keep cold food cold and hot food hot because:
bacteria multiply quickly in the danger zone!
Check final temperature with thermometer (don’t eyeball it)
What YOU Can Do
What YOU Can Do
• Clean & sanitize
• Wash your hands frequently & well
• Use gloves or utensils – no bare hands
• Prevent cross contamination (germs traveling)… clean and separate!
How do you hit a moving target?
• New germs
• Germs in new foods
• Worldwide “germ pool”
