Nébih issues food safety guidelines for summer grilling and travel
The National Food Chain Safety Office (Nébih) has issued safety guidelines to prevent foodborne illnesses during summer activities, specifically focusing on grilling and travel.
For outdoor grilling, Nébih advises maintaining the cold chain by purchasing perishable items like meat and dairy last and using cooling bags for transport. To prevent cross-contamination, separate cutting boards and utensils should be used for raw meat, and hands must be washed thoroughly with soap. Meat must reach an internal temperature of at least 72 °C to ensure pathogens are destroyed.
Regarding summer travel, the agency warns that food stored in car trunks or back seats can enter the temperature danger zone between 5 °C and 60 °C, where bacteria multiply rapidly. Travelers are encouraged to avoid highly perishable items such as deli meats, cream cheeses, and mayonnaise-based salads. Instead, hardier options like apples, pears, and carrots are recommended for transport.
