“The holidays are a great time for cooking and sharing recipes, but along with this comes some food safety risks such as bacterial cross-contamination in the kitchen,” said Greg West, president of NPE.
“This holiday recipe contest is a fun way to encourage at-home cooks to be food safety conscious, and take steps to reduce the chance of food-borne illness.”
Davidson’s Safest Choice Pasteurized Shell Eggs are processed using a Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved, patented pasteurization process recognized by the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) to inactivate the Salmonella and avian influenza virus.
