National Food Safety Week 2: Keep It Controlled

The Future of Food Safety Week 2: Keep it Controlled! The supply chain is becoming more complex. Ingredients may come from around the block or around the world. Suppliers may have different procedures but food handlers must ensure that the food that arrives at your operation is safe and meeting your operation's requirements.

Time and temperature control:
