GOLDEN VALLEY, Minn. — The holiday season brings with it a landslide of family meals, parties and potlucks - enough food to stuff you like the turkey many will enjoy on Thanksgiving.
But along with all that food... comes increased food safety issues and chances of getting sick.
U of M Extension Education and food safety expert Amy Johnston visited KARE 11 Saturday to discuss proper food preparation, cooking, transporting and storage to decrease the chances someone will contract a food-borne illness from something you made.
Among the most common holiday food issues are undercooking things like a turkey, and not keeping hot food hot and cold food cold when taking it from point A to point B and serving.
