The Foundation of Food Safety

In a kitchen, cleaning and sanitizing aren't just about appearances; they're the cornerstones of food safety. Proper hygiene practices prevent the spread of harmful bacteria and viruses, protecting yourself, your family, and your customers from foodborne illnesses. Failing to clean and sanitize can lead to serious health risks and potential legal liabilities.

Cleaning removes visible dirt, food residue, and grease. Sanitizing, on the other hand, reduces the number of harmful microorganisms to safe levels. Both are crucial but serve different purposes. Imagine cleaning as washing away the visible mess, while sanitizing eliminates the invisible threats.

• Cleaning removes visible dirt and debris.
• Sanitizing reduces microorganisms to safe levels.
• Combined, they create a safe kitchen environment.
