Abstract

The article discusses a kitchen checkup tool that consumers could use to assess their home kitchens and to increase food safety awareness in the U.S. It notes that the Home Kitchen Check-Up educational tool has been adapted from foodservice facility inspection techniques typically used in restaurants and other food establishments. It also mentions that the instrument has been reviewed by experts in nutrition, food service, and food microbiology, a licensed sanitarian, and a registered environmental health specialist for accuracy, completeness, and appropriateness for home kitchens.
