food safety

Nothing beats grilling in the summer with family and friends, unless food poisoning strikes!

I'm skeptical.  I'm the kinda girl that has a three day limit on leftovers.  I ran out of salami and hummus, my two staple lunches so I dug around in the freezer and found a package of fully cooked brats.  While I was putting that and a tortilla (that's what I was going to use instead of a bun) I noticed the expiration date and wondered if I should just go hungry.

The Ad Council is shining the spotlight on food safety  - relating some common myths and facts about home cooked meals.  The subject is one of their featured national campaigns that seek to inforrm the general public about a variety of issues.

First off - you should know that there wasn't a concern about cantaloupes.  (With the alarming number of recalls, etc these days - I felt that I needed to alert you that this ISN'T a story about recalls and cantaloupes).  In fact - Cantaloupes have never been involved with a foodborne illness.
