Since this is a week when many American families will be having a large holiday feast, I thought it might be worthwhile to share the Food Safety website. This site is a gateway to food safety information provided by government agencies. According to the Key Findings of the Food Safety Working Group,“The federal government will enhance www.foodsafety.gov to better communicate information to the public and include an improved individual alert system allowing consumers to receive food safety information, such as notification of recalls. Agencies will also use social media to expand public communications.” The Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) of the U.S. Department of Agriculture, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) serve important roles in ensuring food safety in the United States. All play an important part in contributing information to this site.
