It seems almost weekly, we’re hearing something has been recalled due to a pathogen. So, just what are those germs infecting our foods and what can we do to prevent them? Check out this quick guide to five of the most common food-borne illnesses to find out: #1: Camplobacter Affected Foods: Poultry Per Year Stats: 76 deaths and 8,500 hospitalizations Prevention: Not cooked poultry and a cross contamination are the two likeliest reasons behind it. Be sure to wash everything that raw food comes in contact to. #2: Toxoplasma Affected Foods: Pork and Beef Per Year Stats: More than 300 deaths and 4500 hospitalizations Prevention: Cook the meat to proper temperature and be sure to wash your hands after handling raw meat. #3: Listeria Affected Foods: Deli Meats and Cheeses Per Year Stats: 255 deaths Prevention: Eliminate cross-contamination, such as using different knives and cutting boards. When it comes to deli meats, buying small amounts could end up being the difference. #4: Salmonella Affected Foods: Poultry, eggs, produce Per Year Stats: 19,000 hospitalizations and 255 deaths Prevention: Wash your hands before and after handling those raw foods. Be cautious to let it not touch ready-to-eat foods and kitchen equipment. #5: Norovirus Affected Foods: Homemade salads and sandwiches Per Year Stats: 6,696 hospitalizations and 68 deaths Prevention: Washing hands is the biggest form of prevention; if you are showing flu-like symptoms, have a roommate or friend make your food instead. *Information courtesy of foodnetwork.com
