If you’re cooking this season, consider these food safety tips provided by the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics:
- Keep at least two cutting boards—one for raw meats and seafood and the other for produce and ready-to-eat foods.
- Consider using paper towels rather than sponges and kitchen towels that can lead to cross-contamination on kitchen surfaces and hands.
