Packed Lunch Food Safety
As the new school year gets underway, parents need to know how to pack lunches safely. Food poisoning can be very serious for young children, so their food needs to be as safe as possible.
The FDA has more information about safe bag lunches. Know that all perishable foods, including meat, poultry, seafood, dairy products, and eggs, should be kept cold at all times. Any of these foods should not be left at room temperature longer than 2 hours – 1 hour if the air temperature is over 90°F.
