Washing hands thoroughly with soap and warm water, especially after using the bathroom or handling raw foods, is essential for food safety. Bacteria can grow anywhere and reproduce quickly, potentially causing illness, so keeping raw and cooked foods separate and making sure surfaces and utensils are clean is important. It is also vital to check that meat is fully cooked with no pink color remaining and juices run clear before serving.
