Bacteria grow slowly at low temperatures and multiply rapidly at mid-range temperatures. To be safe, a product must be cooked to an internal temperature high enough to destroy harmful bacteria. Using a thermometer is a reliable way to ensure that food has reached the proper temperature. However, to be effective, the thermometers must be used properly and calibrated correctly. If the thermometer is inserted incorrectly, or placed in the wrong area, the reading may not accurately reflect the internal temperature of the product. In general, the thermometer should be place in the thickest part of the food, away from bone, fat or gristle. Read the manufacturer's instructions on how to calibrate (check the accuracy of) the thermometer. According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture, temperature is the only way to guage whether food is sufficiently cooked. USDA research reveals that the 'color test' can give consumers misleading information about the safety of the foods they are preparing, since cooked color varies considerably. For example, freezing and thawing may influence a meat's tendency to brown prematurely.<\/p>\n     \n    \n     \n    \n  <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"uc_ac_box \">\n  <div class=\"uc-heading uc_trigger\">\n    \n        \n    <div class=\"ue_title\">What should you do if you have a problem with the food product?<\/div>\n    \n    \n        <div class=\"ue_expand_spacing\"><\/div>\n    <div class=\"ue_expand\">\n      <div class=\"ue_expand_inside\">\n      <span class=\"uc_dactive bbb ue_accordion_icon\" ><i class='fas fa-caret-down'><\/i><\/span>\n      <span class=\"uc_active bbb ue_accordion_icon\"><i class='fas fa-caret-up'><\/i><\/span>\n      <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n        \n  <\/div>\n  <!-- end of heading -->\n  \n  \n  <div class=\"uc_content\" >\n          <p>Example Problems:<\/p><ul><li>Your hot dog has a strip of plastic inside.<\/li><li>The canned chili contains a metal washer.<\/li><li>You think a restaurant dinner made you ill.<\/li><li>A piece of glass was in your box of cereal.<\/li><\/ul><h2>What can you do?<\/h2><p><strong>For help with meat, poultry and egg products:<\/strong> Call the toll-free USDA Meat and Poultry Hotline at 1 (800) 535-4555.<\/p><p><strong>For help with restaurant food problems:<br \/><\/strong> Call the Health Department in your city, county or state.

Some organisms may cause neurological or allergic symptoms such as dizziness, blurred vision, puffiness, tingling, itching skin, burning throat and muscle aches.<\/p><p>In order to confirm food poisoning a doctor must run tests on blood, stool, and\/or vomit to detect the presence of the organism. However, with many of the intoxication type of illnesses, the organism is not detectable. Food samples may also be checked to find the organism.<\/p>\n     \n    \n     \n    \n  <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n        <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<!-- end Icon Accordion -->\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-bb5a677 elementor-section-full_width elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"bb5a677\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-902802c\" data-id=\"902802c\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c62221d elementor-widget elementor-widget-shortcode\" data-id=\"c62221d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"shortcode.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-shortcode\">\t\t<div data-elementor-type=\"section\" data-elementor-id=\"4934\" class=\"elementor elementor-4934\" data-elementor-post-type=\"elementor_library\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-4469b59d elementor-section-stretched elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"4469b59d\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;,&quot;stretch_section&quot;:&quot;section-stretched&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-background-overlay\"><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-615ea353\" data-id=\"615ea353\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-bdb2691 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"bdb2691\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h5 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">LOCATIONS<\/h5>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-00f74f9 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"00f74f9\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>We have 9 locations across Tulsa County that offer a variety of services to help you and your family stay healthy.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-fd63501 elementor-align-center secondary elementor-widget elementor-widget-button\" data-id=\"fd63501\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"button.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-button-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"elementor-button elementor-button-link elementor-size-sm\" href=\"\/locations\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-content-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-text\">Find Yours<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Food Safety Classes, Study Guides and Permits\u200b Food safety training assures that the permit holder understands the importance of good hygienic practices and that they have knowledge on how to protect food against contamination.
