Food Facts and Tips
When Preparing Food
Wash hands and surfaces often. Bacteria can be spread throughout the kitchen and get onto cutting boards, utensils, and
counter tops. To prevent this:
Wash hands with soap and hot water before and after handling food, and after using the bathroom, changing diapers, or
handling pets.
Use paper towels or clean cloths to wipe up kitchen surfaces or spills. Wash cloths often in the hot cycle of your
washing machine.
Wash cutting boards, dishes, utensils, and counter tops with hot, soapy water after preparing each food item and before
you go on to the next item. A solution of 1 teaspoon of bleach in 1 quart of water may be used to sanitize washed surfaces
and utensils.

Chicken Facts
Giblet color can vary, especially in the liver, from mahogany to yellow. The type of feed, the chicken's metabolism and
its breed can account for the variation in color. If the liver is green, do not eat it. This is due to bile retention.
However, the chicken meat should be safe to eat.
