Bacteria can spread throughout the kitchen and get on hands, cutting boards, knives and countertops. Frequent cleaning can keep that from happening.

WASH hands with warm water and soap for 20 seconds before and after handling food .

WASH cutting boards, dishes, utensils, and counter tops with hot soapy water after preparing each food item and before you go on to the next food.

RINSE fruits and vegetables under running tap water, including those with skins and rinds that are not eaten.
