fecting man. It has been reported in increasing numbers in recent years. Two and one half million people were the victims of salmonella food illness in 1976. Many cases go unreported because people assume they have had an upset digestive problem or a case of the “flu bug.” Salmonella are a group of bacteria widespread in nature. They may be found in poultry, meat and meat products, eggs, fish, shellfish and oysters. Strict sanitation measures should be followed because cleanliness in food handling is the most important way to prevent the bacteria from being carried. Preventing food poisoning from salmonella is based on four principles: Cooking foods thoroughly and serving them hot; preventing recontamination of foods through cleanliness and use of sanitary utsensils; prompt cooling or freezing of foods after preparation to retard the multiplication of all bacteria; and full reheating of stored foods to destroy bacteria. Keep hot foods hot and cold foods cold.
