• US is one of the safest food supplies in the world. (Mixed report)

• Even with an exceptional record, people still become ill due to foodborne pathogens.

Protection of Food Supply Faces Problems

• Contamination: (Self define)

• The state of being impure or unfit for use due to the introduction of unwholesome or undesirable elements.

• Types of Food Contaminants

• Physical

• Chemical

• Microbial

• What do you think a physical contaminant is and give some examples of each.

• Share (2 O’clock Partner)

• Physical Contaminant

• Physical items that are mixed with the food themselves but do not spoil or change how the food tastes.

• Can still be harmful if consumed.

• Examples: metal filings, glass shards, packaging materials, insects, and rodent droppings.

• Does this belong here?

• Chemical Contaminants

• Insecticides

• Herbicides

• What are these?

• USDA monitors all pesticide use in the US.

• Chemical contaminants also enter the food supply through water.

• Mercury, cadmium, lead, chloroform, benzene, and polychlorinatedbiphenyls (PCBs) can get into the water supplies that are used to process food.

• Sources of Toxic Substances

• Pesticides - must be biodegradable in order to use.

• Industrial Waste

• What are some ways that pollutants from industry can get into the water supply?

• Cresent, OR. Gas Stations 1998

• Underground tank leaked.

• 1 of 702 in Oregon removed.

• Some microbial contaminants work against each other.

• 1928 Sir Alexander Fleming discovered that mold on lab plates killed Staphylococcus bacteria by oozing juice.

• Harvested “ooze” and became the active ingredient in penicillin, most widely antibiotic used in the world.

• We have all experienced some sort of foodborne illness.

• Many “think” they are coming down with stomach flu.

• Symptoms include:

• diarrhea, stomach cramps, and vomiting

• Some are more sensitive to pathogens than others.

• Some Facts!!!

• US has one of the safest food supplies in the world.

• FDA estimates 48 million cases of foodborne illness annually. (That is 1 in 6 people.) How many in the room?

• Of that, 325,000 hospitalizations and 5,000 deaths.

• Who regulates what?

Food and Drug Administration (FDA)

U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA)

• All food, except meat, poultry, and processed eggs. (Not shelled eggs.)

• Chemicals • Food additives • Food and drugs for pets and

farm animals. • Household devices (e.g.

microwaves)

• Meat • Poultry • Processed Eggs

• Project - FBI Group Research

• Many organisms can cause foodborne illness.

• Design 8.5” x 11” poster, educating the public on one of the following Foodborne Illness-Causing Organisms.

H O W PAT H O G E N S E N T E R T H E F O O D S U P P LY• Two main ways food can become contaminated with

pathogens:

1. transmission by animals

2. improper handling procedures

• Cross-contamination

• Poor personal hygiene

• Time and Temperature Abuse

H O W PAT H O G E N S E N T E R T H E F O O D S U P P LY

Cross Contamination

• Bacteria spread very quickly.

• NEVER serve cooked meals on plates or using utensils that have touched raw food items.

• Running those dishes under hot water is not enough.

• Just be safe and use clean dishes and utensils.

H O W PAT H O G E N S E N T E R T H E F O O D S U P P LY

Cross Contamination

• Leftover sauces or marinades should never be used for a second meal unless sterilized.

• Bring sauce or marinade to a rolling boil to sterilize.

• Never cut fruit or vegetables on a board that has been used to cut raw meat.

• Surfaces MUST be washed and sanitized.

• The number one cause of foodborne illness is failure to properly cool and heat foods.

P O O R P E R S O N A L H Y G I E N E

• Proper hand washing could eliminate close to half of all foodborne illness cases.

• Women wash hands more often than men (74% vs. 61%).

• Students who wash their hands four times a day had 24% fewer sick days.
