Description

The safest of food thus depends on freedom from those bacteria known to cause food poisoning and also from mass bacterial contamination usually resulting from careless storage. Clean food is free from visible dirt and bacterial spoilage; not all spoilage bacteria cause food poisoning and conversely the food poisoning bacteria may not cause visible spoilage even when present in enormous numbers . The aim of food hygiene should be production and service of food which is both safe and clean .
