Hosting or attending Super Bowl party? Keep food safety in mind
If you're hosting or going to a Super Bowl party, don't forget about food safety.

If you're hosting or going to a Super Bowl party, don't forget about food safety.

The USDA is reminding everyone that most foodborne illness occurs in the home.

And its laid out four simple steps: clean, separate, cook and chill.

1. Keep your hands clean.

2. Use separate tools and plates for preparing meats and fresh produce.

3. Cook all foods thoroughly, and use a thermometer for meats.

4. And chill - don't leave anything at room temperature for more than 2 hours.

Put it on ice, or in the refrigerator.
