Answer 1

Mostly the foodborne illness is caused by bacteria and viruses. The following precautions could be taken into account to prevent foodborne illness.

Raw foods like raw meat and poultry, eggs and unpasteurized milk are the most likely to be contaminated.

Fruits and vegetables when unclean water is used for washing the produce.

Unpasteurized fruit juices can also be contaminated if there are pathogens on the fruit that is used to make it.

When a food item is touched by a person who is ill with vomiting or diarrhea, or he is unclean or he did not wash his hands during cooking can also create foodborne illness. Therefore, both the food and the person who serves it must be clean and hygiene.

Answer 2

You have to make sure all of the utensils you use to cook are clean and not full of bacteria. It is also preferable that you wash your hands before you begin cooking that way you do not pass any germs through the food.

It is essential everything is cleaned, cooked and inspected.
