Itâs officially the warm season and people are firing up the grill to enjoy some good ol fashioned barbecues. With more people feeling good about gathering together, especially outside, cooking outdoors and grilling may be activities high on the list.
Be sure your food safety knowledge is also properly prepared.
Food poisoning is considered a serious public health threat by the U.S. Department of Agriculture. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) estimates that 48 million people get sick with more than 128,000 people hospitalized annually in America from foodborne illnesses. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration reports more than 40 different types of bacteria, viruses, mold and parasites that cause foodborne illness.

Memorial Day weekend is almost here, which means plenty of people will probably be barbecuing this weekend, and for many weekends throughout the summer. While some people get fancy with their grilling, there’s nothing like a good old hamburger from the grill, and apparently folks have some specific opinions on what exactly constitutes the perfect burger.
A new survey by the National Cattleman’s Beef Association finds:
Forget meat substitutes, the perfect burger is a beef patty, preferably one that’s thick.
24% of folks feel it needs to be on a sesame seed bun to be perfect.
As for toppings, 78% of people say they could “make or break” a burger.
