Conclusions

• Practical recommendations for the safe han-
  dling of food at home and elsewhere are given
  in table 2
  
  
  • Toxicological safety of food is primarily the re-
    sponsibility of the manufacturer
  
  
  • Microbial safety of food is both the responsi-
    bility of the manufacturer and of the person
    preparing and serving it
