This holiday season, are you concerned about getting food poisoning due to someone else’s poor kitchen hygiene? If so, you’re not alone.

As millions of Americans dust off their cookbooks and browse recipe websites to prepare festive holiday meals, a new survey reveals that 1 in 3 Americans is concerned about getting food poisoning due to someone else’s poor kitchen hygiene. The survey found that concern is warranted, as many home cooks engage in unsanitary food preparation practices.

In response to these findings, the Water Quality & Health Council has launched the Plate It Safe campaign and is teaming up with food influencers to educate home cooks and bakers on how to safely prepare recipes, especially as the holiday cooking season nears.

Below is a list of holiday recipes that include food safety tips from popular food influencers and publishers who have joined the Plate It Safe campaign. You can also download our free Food Safety Guidelines and Safe Internal Cooking Temperature resources to reference while you cook!
