Keep raw meat, poultry, eggs, fish away from other foods. Separate in shopping cart & refrigerator (make
sure juices don’t drip onto other foods). Use one cutting board for fresh produce and
another for raw meat, poultry, and seafood. Never place cooked product back on plate or
cutting board that previously held raw food.
