5 Module 1 Food-borne illness In this module, you will learn: What is food-borne illness How micro-organisms cause food-borne illnesses
6 What is food-borne illness Sickness caused by eating unsafe food Also know as food poisoning Common symptoms include: Diarrhea Vomiting Abdominal cramps Fever Chills
7 Causes of food-borne illness There are four causes of food-borne illness: Microbiological contamination Allergens Physical contamination Chemical contamination
8 Microbiological contamination Micro-organisms: Are small living things that cannot be seen Can make people sick Include bacteria, viruses, fungi
9 Microbiological contamination Micro-organisms can be transmitted to food when: People cough or sneeze on food People do not wash their hands properly Insects or rodents come into contact with food Food is stored at unsafe temperatures that allow bacteria to grow to unsafe levels Food is not thoroughly cooked to a temperature that kills the micro-organisms Kitchen surfaces, utensils and equipment are not properly cleaned and sanitized
10 Allergens Food allergies or sensitivities to certain food are a problem for many people It is estimated that as many as 5-6% of young children have food allergies in Canada Any food can be a hazard for a person who is allergic or sensitive to it
11 Allergens The following foods cause the most common and severe allergic reactions: Milk Eggs Peanuts Sesame seeds Soy Wheat Additives (sulphites) Seafood Tree nuts (almonds, Brazil nuts, cashews, hazelnuts, macadamia, pecans, pine nuts, pistachios, walnuts)
12 Allergens Symptoms to food allergies can appear immediately or some time after the product is consumed Allergic reactions can cause many symptoms: Digestive: Vomiting, diarrhea, nausea or swelling Respiratory: Coughing, sneezing, tightness in the chest, trouble breathing due to swelling of the throat and tongue, or runny or stuffy nose Skin rashes: Eczema or hives
13 Anaphylaxis Anaphylaxis or anaphylactic shock occurs when a person experiences any of these symptoms, including a drop in blood pressure Anaphylaxis starts within minutes of food contact
14 Allergens To prevent allergic reactions: Avoid ingredients known to cause allergic reactions when possible Have an accurate and up-to-date recipe binder Avoid cross-contamination with other foods Have an emergency procedure for handling allergic reactions available
15 Physical contamination Physical contamination occurs when hazards accidently get into food Hazards include: Dirt Hair Broken glass Nails Staples Bits Other objects
16 Chemical contamination Dissolved metal in food can cause chemical food poisoning Adulteration occurs when chemicals (insecticides, cleaning chemicals) get into food by accident through cross-contamination and cause food poisoning
17 Chemical contamination To prevent accidental chemical contamination: Never store chemicals with food Never leave chemical products or cleaning cloths used with chemicals on food preparation surfaces Properly label all chemicals with the product name and contents Allow surfaces to dry after cleaning before putting food on tables
18 Who is at risk? Anyone who eats food that has not been handled safely School-age children are at higher risk of contracting foodborne illness and becoming more seriously ill Others at risk include pregnant women, seniors and people with weakened immune systems
19 Foods that can cause food-borne illness Any type of food that can support the growth of micro-organisms and/or the production of their toxins can cause food-borne illness This includes, but is not limited to: Looking or smelling food will not indicate that it is unsafe

30 Safe food handling learning modules Module 1 Food-borne illness Module 2 Personal hygiene Module 3 Safe food preparation: Clean Module 4 Safe food preparation: Separate Module 5 Safe food preparation: Cook Module 6 Safe food preparation: Chill Module 7 Food safety when shopping
31 Module 2 Personal hygiene In this module, you will learn: The importance of handwashing and the six steps to proper handwashing Situations when you should wash your hands Proper glove use Handling food when you are sick
32 Handwashing Handwashing, when done correctly, is the most effective way to prevent the spread of communicable diseases, including food-borne illness
33 How to wash your hands 1. Remove jewelry and watches. Wet hands with warm water first. 2. Apply soap. Be sure to use enough liquid soap. 3. Lather well. Lather for seconds. Clean wrists, palms, back of hands and between fingers. 4. Rinse. Rinse with warm water. Be sure not to touch the side of the sink. 5. Dry. Dry hands completely with paper towel or with an air dryer. 6. Turn off tap with towel. Use paper towel to turn off the water to protect hands from getting dirty again
34 Handwashing Always wash your hands: Before you start work Before handling any food After handling garbage After handling money After cleaning, dishwashing, and mopping Any time your hands get dirty or contaminated After using the toilet, sneezing, coughing or blowing nose
35 Can I use waterless hand sanitizers? Waterless hand sanitizers: Are not effective on hands which are greasy or dirty Are never a substitute for proper handwashing Should only be used after proper handwashing Choose an alcohol-based hand sanitizer that contains 60 to 90% alcohol Read the expiration date on the container
36 When to use gloves Gloves can be used instead of bare hands, but gloves will pick up micro-organisms the same way hands do You must wash your hands before and after putting on a pair of gloves Use new gloves when you change tasks or after any contamination Use gloves if you have a cut or burn on your hands Throw away used gloves
37 Hats and hairnets Everyone should wear headgear (hats or hairnets) that cover all the hair, keeping hair off the forehead and the back of the neck This helps to keep hair out of food and off of food contact surfaces It also discourages people from touching their hair and contaminating their hands
38 Serving food Food handlers should avoid touching food directly whenever possible Utensils like tongs, spoons and scoops can prevent micro-organisms on your hands from getting into food Napkins or sheets of waxed paper and gloves to pick up foods like bread, cheese and fruit without directly touching the food with your hands
39 When you are sick When you are sick, your body produces more microorganisms than it does when you are healthy You must not prepare or serve food if you have: Persistent coughing or sneezing Diarrhea Vomiting Fever and/or Sore throat Sick policy A sick policy should be in place so that volunteers who are sick with vomiting and/or diarrhea do not participate in food preparation until they are symptom free for 48 hours

55 How to wash fruits and vegetables Wash hands with soap and warm water for 15 to 20 seconds For leafy vegetables (e.g. lettuce), peel off outer leaves that are bruised or damaged Wash fruits and vegetables under cool running tap water Pat dry using a clean kitchen towel or paper towels
56 Cleaning and sanitizing hard surfaces Cleaning is the physical removal of visible soil from the surfaces of equipment and utensils Sanitizing refers to reducing the number of bacteria to safe levels with the use of an approved sanitizer or very high water temperatures (sanitizing cycle of commercial dishwashers) Consult with the school custodian to confirm the policy on the use of approved sanitizers (e.g. Swiss Clean and Green)
57 How to clean hard surfaces Remove any obvious pieces of food, dirt or other debris Start from the cleanest to the dirtiest Use cleaning chemicals and friction (e.g. scrubbing) to remove the rest Rinse with hot water to remove cleaning chemicals
58 Dishwashing Depending on the room set-up, you may find either two sinks or three sinks available for dishwashing Clean larger equipment as you would smaller items Submerge in sanitizing solution. If it is too big to submerge, spray with sanitizing solution and let air dry
59 Dishwashing For kitchen equipment and cooking utensils 1. Scrape or prerinse 2. Clean (sink 1) 3. Rinse (sink 2) 4. Sanitize (sink 3) 5. Air dry
60 Dishwashing If you only have two sinks, a plastic dishpan can be used as the third sink
61 Dishwashing All machines must have gauges that show wash and rinse temperatures The wash temperature should be maintained at a temperature no lower than 60 o C (140 o F) or higher than 71 o C (160 o F). This is the ideal temperature range to remove food debris without baking food onto utensils The water temperature in this cycle must reach 82 o C (180 o F) or higher for at least 10 seconds Mechanical dishwashers should be regularly cleaned and maintained to keep them working properly and to reduce servicing costs
62 School board approved sanitizers for cleaning hard surfaces and utensils 1. Ask your custodian for one of the following sanitizers for dishes, utensils and surfaces for food: OR Zochlor ask custodian for dilution instructions Another school-approved product
63 Sanitizing surfaces Surfaces include tables, taps, fridge door handles etc., Speak to your school custodian to obtain a sanitizing solution or disinfecting wipes Due to school board s health and safety policies, the sanitizing solution must be prepared by the school custodian
64 Sanitizing surfaces Sanitizing solution: Placed in a labeled spray bottle Disinfecting wipes: Follow manufacturer s recommendations on use
65 Test strips It is important to mix chemicals properly Not using enough chemicals will mean microorganisms are not being killed, using too much can lead to chemical contamination Types of chemical sanitizers: Chlorine-based products Quaternary ammonium-based products Iodine-based products
66 Test strips Chlorine-based products Commonly used product is household bleach Required to be at a strength of 100 ppm for multi-use utensils and 200 ppm for food contact surfaces Quaternary ammonium-based products Need to be used according to manufacturer directions Required to be at a strength of 200 ppm for multi-use utensils and 400 ppm for food contact surfaces Iodine-based products Need to be used according to manufacturer directions Required to be at a strength of 25 ppm

136 Module 7 Food safety when shopping In this module, you will learn: How to identify an inspected food establishment Grade A, B, and C eggs Difference between expiry and best before dates How to purchase dairy, canned and dry foods
137 Inspected food source An inspected source is food prepared at premises such as supermarkets, wholesalers, distributors, and farmer s markets, where the premises has been inspected by government officials for compliance to legislation. In York Region, food premises inspection reports can be reviewed at
138 when grocery shopping
139 Dry goods Check packages for dampness or mould which could be signs of spoilage or bacterial growth Check packages for holes or tears which could be evidence of an infestation
140 Check for the best before date Dairy products Refrigerate within two hours of purchase
141 Check eggs for cracks, feathers or feces Eggs All eggs sold in grocery stores will have the Grade A stamp on the carton
142 Three Types of Eggs Grade A eggs Sold at retail markets. Food premises can use them. Sold at grocery stores and purchased for personal use. Grade B eggs Can be used for commercial baking or further processing only. Grade C eggs: Cannot be sold to consumers or used by food premises. Sold to commercial processors for further processing.
143 Canned foods Avoid cans that are: Bulging: Bacteria can enter cans with tiny holes caused from dents and rusted seams Leaking Missing labels or have unreadable labels Rusted Severely dented or denting at the seam or rim potential hazard Swollen
144 Expiry vs. best before dates Expiry dates After the expiry date, the food may not have the same microbiological and physical stability and nutrient content declared on the label Food should not be eaten passed the expiration date Best before dates Best before dates must appear on prepackaged foods that will keep fresh for 90 days or less It only applies to unopened products Once opened, the product should be consumed quickly Foods such as milk and cheese should not be consumed passed the best before date
145 Food storage It is important to ensure you keep food products, or stock, are stored in ways that will keep them safe and fresh Use FIFO rule First in, first out Sort foods by their best before or expiration dates Products without these dates should be dated when they are received New products should be put behind older products to ensure that older products are used first
146 Pest control The best way to control a pest infestation is to prevent it from happening in the first place Pest control does not replace good sanitation. The cleaner the premises, the easier it will be to control pests
147 Pest control Do Store all food and supplies at least 15 cm (6 inches) off the floor Keep grains and open bulk food products in sealed metal or heavy plastic containers Keep break rooms, washrooms and locker rooms clean and dry Do not Accept/buy anything with signs of pests, like gnawing or feces Keep cardboard packaging around; it can carry cockroach eggs Let spilled food attract pests; clean up any spills right away Leave garbage where it will attract pests; store properly
