Health Tip: Teach Kids About Snack Safety
By LadyLively on January 12, 2015
When hungry kids get home from school, make sure they know how to fix a healthy snack — and which foods to avoid.
The Foodsafety.gov website suggests avoiding:
- Any perishable foods that haven’t been refrigerated, such as pizza.
- Any perishable leftovers from the lunchbox, such as all or part of a sandwich.
- Raw cookie dough.
- Raw fruits and veggies that are bruised or appear spoiled.
- Bread or soft cheese that appears moldy.
