- Check Inspection Scores<\/strong>
\nMany state health departments make restaurant health inspection scores available on the web. Check the score before going to the restaurant \u00a0or check when you get there.<\/li>\n - Make Sure the Restaurant Is Clean<\/strong>
\nConfirm that restaurant tables, floors, and utensils are clean. If not, you may want to take your business elsewhere.<\/li>\n - Check That Your Food Is Cooked Thoroughly<\/strong>
\nMeat, fish, poultry, and eggs should be cooked thoroughly to kill germs. If food is served undercooked or raw, send it back.<\/li>\n - Properly Handle Your Leftovers<\/strong>
\nTaking your food to go? Remember to refrigerate within 2 hours of eating out. If food is left in a hot car or temperatures above 90\u00baF, refrigerate it \u00a0within 1 hour. Eat leftovers within 3 to 4 days.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/div>\n![\"\"](\"http:\/\/foodsafetytrainingcertification.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/protect-yourself-when-eating-out-508c-1.png\")
<\/p>\n<\/div>\nFood Safety Rules<\/h3>\n
The food service facilities\u00a0 in your community, like restaurants, delis, grocery stores, and others, must follow local food safety rules. These rules are set by your city, county, district, or state. Each community may have the same or slightly different food safety rules and requirements for food vendors. All food safety rules have similar requirements about<\/p>\n
- \n
- Safe source:<\/strong> Food or food ingredients come from a safe source.<\/li>\n
- Safe temperature:<\/strong> Food is held at the correct cold or hot holding temperatures.<\/li>\n
- Proper cooking:<\/strong> Food is cooked properly, especially foods such as meat, poultry, and pork.<\/li>\n
- Proper handling:<\/strong> Food is handled to prevent cross-contamination from the environment (for example, common work areas or common utensils).<\/li>\n
- Proper hand washing:<\/strong> Food handlers know how to prevent contamination, especially food handlers who may be sick with vomiting or diarrhea.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Food Establishment Inspections<\/h3>\n
One of the ways food safety rules protect the public\u2019s health is through food vendor inspections. Each community\u2019s rules may differ on<\/p>\n
- \n
- How often food vendor inspections are conducted.<\/li>\n
- The type of inspection form used.<\/li>\n
- The type of grading or scoring system used to rate the safety of food vendors.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
