How many cases of the same illness result in a foodborne foodborne disease outbreak is the occurrence of two or more cases of the same

What is the primary goal of a food safety program The primary goal of a food safety program is to prevent foodborne illness and
foodborne disease outbreaks
prevention of most foodborne disease outbreaks is 1) improper hot and cold holding Temps of food

factors: 3) contaminated utensils and equipment
4) poor employee health and hygiene
5) food from unsafe sources.
Define bacteria single celled microorganisms with rigid cell wall that multiply by dividing into two
that is by binary fission. Some bacteria cause illness and others cause food

contaminants include bacteria, parasites, viruses and fungi. These microorganisms
may be transferred to food from a variety of sources, such as people, raw food,
pest and refuse
What is the acronym that helps us to remember the FATTOM- food, acidity, time, temperature, oxygen, &moisture
variables that affect bacterial growth
What is the temperature danger zone Food poisoning bacteria generally multiply between 41°F and 135°F
What bacteria is linked to cooked rice and pasta Bacillus cereus
What is chemical contamination Chemical contamination is the contamination of food by chemical substances
such as pesticides and cleaning solution
What is physical contamination Physical contamination occurs when any foreign object becomes mix with food
and presents in hazard for nuisance those who consume it
