A use-by date is a measure of safety. Never eat food after the use-by date even if it looks and smells ok – you can’t see, smell or taste the bacteria that cause food poisoning. https://t.co/1dS0JluoKX

If you're reheating food that's already been cooked, it's important to reheat food until it's steaming hot throughout, to kill harmful bacteria. Lukewarm leftover could cause illnesses like food poisoning. #BacteriaLoveItHere #FoodSafety

Whenever unsafe food is recalled, the Food Standards Agency send out a food alert via text message & email. It may be because: ❌ there’s a risk of food poisoning from e.g. salmonella 🤢 ❌ the food is contaminated with plastic or metal 🔩 Sign-up https://t.co/vBpwr3abrx

Don't use dirty & old sponges, cloths or tea towels in your kitchen. These items can harbour and spread bacteria. Wash your tea towels often, chuck out your old sponge and dry between uses. #BacteriaLoveItHere #FoodSafety

Washing raw meat & fish can cause bacteria to spread from your sink, causing cross-contamination in your kitchen. If bacteria spreads, any food you prepare could be unsafe to eat. Only thoroughly cooking meat will get rid of harmful bacteria. #BacteriaLoveItHere #FoodSafety

Setting your fridge at the right temperature & stocking it correctly helps you keep your food safe to eat. Keep everything sealed, safe & separate, with raw ingredients like meat, poultry and seafood at the bottom. https://t.co/RxKawlDQV8
