Don't Get Food Poisoning! 10 Tips to Help Avoid It

Published by Huffington Post on Sun, 28 Dec 2014


Ask anyone who's ever had food poisoning, and they'll tell you that it's an experience that they wouldn't wish on their worst enemy. If you'd prefer never to experience foodborne illness for yourself, there are several things worth keeping in mind.What we call "food poisoning" takes several forms, and they're all quite unpleasant, to say the least. You can contract a foodborne illness by eating food contaminated by bacteria, viruses, or parasites, as well as food containing toxins, like poisonous mushrooms. Vomiting, fever, aches, and repeated trips to the bathroom (we'll leave it at that) are common symptoms of foodborne illness, and in extreme cases a trip to the hospital may be necessary, especially if you become seriously dehydrated. Click Here to See Don't Get Food Poisoning! 10 Tips to Help Avoid ItThe improper handling, storage, or preparation of food is the most common cause of food poisoning. While food safety is (or should be) a concern at just about every restaurant or other establishment that serves food, sometimes things fall through the cracks, and people get sick. Even eating unwashed lettuce can cause bacterial infections like E. coli or viral infections like hepatitis A, which are definitely not fun. There have been several major foodborne illness outbreaks in recent years, caused by everything from cheese sauce left sitting out for too long to contaminated alfalfa sprouts, and even large chains are susceptible. If you're looking to avoid food poisoning, the most important tool to use is your brain. If you walk into a restaurant that's filthy, you can probably assume that the kitchen will be in even worse shape than the dining room, and no one will blame you for high tailing it out of there. If you're on the fence about whether that week-old tuna sandwich is still any good, throw it out, because the joy you may receive from eating it isn't worth the agony that will likely ensue. Here are 10 more handy tips and tricks to keep in mind if you don't want to get sick.Click Here to see the Original Story on The Daily Meal-- Dan Myers, The Daily MealMore Content from The Daily Meal:What to do if you have food poisoningBad Food Poisoning' It likely comes from Your Server Food Poisoning: Once Bitten, Twice Hungry' History's Worst Food Poisoning Outbreaks 9 Foods Most Likely to Cause Food Poisoning
