To prevent food poisoning, some foods are safer choices than others. That’s because some foods—such as undercooked meat and eggs, unwashed fruits and vegetables, and unpasteurized milk—are more often associated with foodborne illnesses.
Some people are more likely to get sick and have a more serious illness from food poisoning.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has a new resource to help guide consumers in making safer food choices at www.cdc.gov/foodsafety/communication/foods-safety-tips.html.
