Preparing for the first day of school this weekend? As you’re making your way through those long back-to-school shopping lists, don’t forget these FoodSafety essentials:
Memorial Day, originally called Decoration Day, is a day of remembrance for those who have died in our nation's service. Many Americans observe Memorial Day by visiting cemeteries and memorials of soldiers who lost their lives protecting our freedoms. On Memorial Day the flag is raised briskly to the top of the staff and then solemnly lowered to the half-staff position, where it remains until noon. It is then raised to full-staff for the remainder of the day. At 3 p.m. local time, a national moment of remembrance takes place. Memorial Day often marks the start of the summer vacation season. Families gather together for a long weekend marked by barbecuing, fireworks, and trips to the beach. This is an important time to remember food safety practices.
A tailgate party is a
social event held on and around the open tailgate of a vehicle. Tailgating,
which originated in the United States, often involves consuming alcoholic
beverages and grilling food. Tailgate parties occur in the parking lots at
stadiums and arenas, before and occasionally after games and concerts. People
attending such a party are said to be 'tailgating'. Many people participate
even if their vehicles do not have tailgates. Tailgate parties also involve
people bringing their own alcoholic beverages, barbecues, food etc. which is
sampled and shared among fans attending the tailgate. Tailgates are intended to
be non-commercial events, so selling items to the fans is frowned upon.
Tailgate parties have
spread to the pre-game festivities at sporting events besides football, such as
basketball, hockey, soccer, and baseball, and also occur at non-sporting events
such as weddings, barbecues, and concerts
Leftovers Refrigerate or freeze leftovers within two hours. Keep your freezer at 0°F and the fridge below 40°F. Foods held at temperatures above 40 °F for more than 2 hours should not be consumed. Use an appliance thermometer to monitor temperatures.
