Food poisoning: "Prevention

These steps can help prevent food poisoning:

Keep juices from meat, poultry, and seafood away from ready to eat foods.
Cook foods to proper temperatures.
Promptly refrigerate any food you will not be eating right away.
If you take care of young children, wash your hands often and dispose of diapers carefully so that bacteria can't spread to other surfaces or people.
If you make canned food at home, make sure to follow proper canning techniques to prevent botulism.
Don't feed honey to children under 1 year of age.
Don't eat wild mushrooms.
When traveling where contamination is more likely, eat only hot, freshly cooked food. Boil water before drinking. Don't eat raw vegetables or unpeeled fruit.
Always refrigerate fish.
Don't eat tropical fish caught during blooms of poison plankton.
Eat pufferfish only in specially licensed restaurants with chefs trained to cook it.
