Fighting bacteria
We need to find ways to stop bacteria getting onto food,
stop bacteria multiplying in food and kill the bacteria.
Covering food stops
bacteria getting on food.
Freezing stops the growth
of bacteria.
Chilling below 5 degrees
slows the growth of
bacteria.
Cooking food kills bacteria.
Does that make it safe to eat cooked food
after it has been left to stand for a few hours?
