Research – Irish survey highlights barbecue food safety risks

Food Safety News

Almost half of respondents to a survey in Northern Ireland have been served raw or undercooked meat at a barbecue.

The poll revealed 45 percent of barbecue-goers in summer were given items such as burgers, chicken and sausages but left them untouched because of the risk of food poisoning.

Safefood conducted the survey of 300 adults across Northern Ireland to shed light on barbecue cooking habits. The group safefood promotes food safety and nutrition in Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland.
