Potentially hazardous
foods are foods that
satisfy all the
requirements for
growth pathogens.

FOODSAFE Level 1
Potentially Hazardous Foods
To prevent the spread of pathogens
meat and poultry must be handled with
great care and must be:
 Stored properly
 Stored away from other foods
especially ready-to-eat foods

Potentially Hazardous Foods:
Meats
 Protein foods are the
ideal environment for
the growth of pathogens
 Many animals and poultry
carry pathogens
(such as Salmonella)

Potentially Hazardous Foods:
Meats
 Disease in their feces
which allow flesh to be
contaminated easily
 Pathogens can spread
into meats that are
ground, rolled, minced or
chopped.

Types of Hazardous Foods:
Dairy Products
Products made with milk may carry pathogens.
 Only properly aged,
hard cheeses are safe
from growth of
pathogenic bacteria,
however they may
contain potentially
hazardous moulds
 dairy products must always be refrigerated
 all milk products must be pasteurized

Hazardous Foods: Egg Products
Eggs are a perfect medium for pathogenic growth.
 Eggs are vulnerable
to Salmonella
contamination
 Eggs must be
refrigerated
Cracked eggs should
never be used!
 Only pasteurized
eggs can be used in
non-cooked products

Hazardous Foods: Fish and Shellfish
Protein foods are a food source for pathogens
 spoil rapidly and
should be stored on
ice and well below the
 ensure your supplier
is government
approved

Hazardous Foods: Cooked Vegetables
and Cereals
Many vegetables contain protein and moisture.
 After cooking, they
become soft and can
support many
pathogens
 Dry cereals are safe
 Cooked cereals are
not safe because they
can support pathogens

Other Hazardous Foods
Any food that satisfies all the
requirements for the growth of
pathogens such as those
containing proteins, vitamins,
minerals, moisture and neutral
pH may potentially hazardous

utensils, work surfaces and raw food items can
easily contaminate potentially hazardous foods:

Safer Foods: Dry
Dried foods do not contain moisture necessary
for pathogens to grow but fried foods are not
sterile.
They are
potentially
hazardous when
wet or prepared
with water.

Safer Foods: Sour (acidic)
Very acidic foods such as fruits and fruit juices
have a low pH so pathogens cannot grow.
Acidic foods can
be neutralized by
high protein foods
such as eggs and
meat.

Some examples are:
peppers, bananas, limes, grapefruit and oranges.

Safer Foods: Sweet or Salty
Only foods that have a lot of sugar or salt added to them
can be considered safe.
 Few foods contain a
high concentration of
salt and still taste good,
for instance pickled
herring or pickled eggs.
 Foods with a sugar
content of 60 % or more
include jams and jellies

Cooking
Temperatures can alter the growth and survival
of pathogens making hazardous food safe to
eat.
Cook foods to the correct
internal temperature 74°C
(165°F) for at least 10 seconds.
The higher the temperature, the
shorter the period required to kill
pathogens.
DO NOT assume that cooked
foods are safe to eat.

Hot Holding
Improper hot holding is one of the

practices that causes foodborne illness.
Food in hot

Freezing
Freezing is not a way to kill pathogens.
Pathogens may not be active but they can still be
present in the food.
The temperature
must be below
-18°C (0°F).
Freezing raw fish
{for 7 days at -20°C

into flames.
Use tongs or
frying baskets.
Don’t put wet items
into hot oil.
Open lids away
from you.
