Protect yourself and your family by following these food safety tips to prevent food poisoning:<\/p>\n<p><b>Clean<\/b><\/p>\n<ul type=\"disc\">\n<li>Wash hands, utensils, dishes, and work surfaces (counter tops and cutting boards) with soap and hot water after contact with raw eggs and raw egg-containing foods. <\/li>\n<li>Discard cracked or dirty eggs.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><b>Separate<\/b><\/p>\n<ul type=\"disc\">\n<li>Never let raw eggs or the utensils that touched them come into contact with food that will be eaten raw.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><b>Cook <\/b><\/p>\n<ul type=\"disc\">\n<li>Cook eggs thoroughly until both the yolk and white are firm. Lightly cooked egg whites and yolks have both caused outbreaks of <i>Salmonella<\/i> infections. <\/li>\n<li>Casseroles and other dishes containing eggs should be cooked to 160\u00b0 F. Use a food thermometer to be sure. <\/li>\n<li>Eat eggs promptly after cooking. Do not keep eggs warm or at room temperature (between 40\u00b0 to 140\u00b0 F) for more than 2 hours. <\/li>\n<li>For recipes that call for raw or undercooked eggs (like Caesar salad dressing and homemade ice cream), consider using pasteurized shell eggs or pasteurized egg products. Look for the word &#8220;pasteurized&#8221; on the label to be sure.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><b>Chill<\/b><\/p>\n<ul type=\"disc\">\n<li>Buy eggs only if sold from a refrigerator or refrigerated case. Keeping eggs adequately refrigerated prevents any <i>Salmonella<\/i> bacteria in or on the eggs from growing to higher numbers (which makes them more likely to cause illness). <\/li>\n<li>At home, keep eggs refrigerated at 40\u00b0 F or below until they&#8217;re needed. Use a refrigerator thermometer to check. <\/li>\n<li>Refrigerate unused eggs or leftovers that contain eggs promptly. <\/li>\n<li>For school or work, pack cooked eggs with a small frozen gel pack or a frozen juice box.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><b>Eating Out<\/b><\/p>\n<ul type=\"disc\">\n<li>Avoid restaurant dishes made with raw or undercooked, unpasteurized eggs. <\/li>\n<li>When in a restaurant, ask if they use pasteurized eggs before ordering anything that might result in consumption of raw or undercooked eggs (such as Hollandaise sauce or Caesar salad dressing).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><b>Take Action<br \/><\/b><\/p>\n<p>If you think that you or a family member has a foodborne illness, <b>contact your healthcare provider immediately<\/b>.
