Preparing safe lunches can prevent food-borne illness.

PDF

1 in 6 Americans suffer food poisoning each year.

Almost 50% of annual salmonella infections occur in infants and school-age-children.

When making lunches, a vital ingredient is cleanliness.

When choosing what to pack, consider the environment.

Just as at home, foods need to be stored appropriately.

When food has been in a lunchbox all day, eating it for dinner can be risky.

Clean your lunchbox or softside container with soapy water after every use, and remember to dry it throughly.
