Jackson, G.J., C.F. Langford and D.I. Archer. 1991. Control of Salmonellosis and similar foodborne infections. Food Control 2(1): 26-34.
The authors stress that control in the preprocessing and postprocessing stages of food handling willhelp reduce the number of cases of foodborne illness. Control in the preprocessing stage will mean that the farm environment is free of infectious agents during the breeding and growth stage. Control in the post-processing stage will mean that labels will provide consumers with simple and specific instructions. Excerpted from 1995. School Food Service Research Review 19(2): 88.

Martin, P. 1990,January8. Foodborne disease threatens industry. Nation's Restaurant news,/b> pp. 27, 30.

Food safety is a major issue facing restaurateurs. Improper hand washing causes an estimated one-fourth of all foodborne illnesses, with the majority dealing with improper heating, cooling, and storage temepratures.
