September is Childhood Obesity Awareness Month
Posted in Blog on September 12th, 2013.
Did you know that studies show that childhood obesity has more than doubled in children and tripled in adolescents in the past 30 years? Food preparation can contribute to the obesity problem. Consider online training for your food service staff. Courses include safe food handling guidelines from receipt of food to preparation and service, portion control and nutrition, ways to eliminate foodborne illness using HACCP principles (Hazard Analysis Critical Control Points), and the responsibilities of professionals regarding personal hygiene and pest control. A food service training package is also available for purchase as part of a nationally bid contract through AEPA. |
