Did you know that a flood, fire, natural disaster, or the loss of power form high winds, snow, or ice can jeopardize the safety of your food?
Knowing how to determine if food is safe and how to keep food safe will help minimize the potential loss of food and reduce the risk of foodborne illness.
The USDA's Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) has created a Consumer's Guide to Food Safety: Severe Storms and Hurricanes to help you make the right decisions for keeping your family safe during an emergency.
