While on the path to a healthy lifestyle, one thing you must do is consider the safety of what you’re eating.
According to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control, upwards of 25% of Americans will suffer from a food borne illness. While safety standards are much higher today resulting in fewer hospitalizations and deaths, consumers must do their part to ensure the food that they eat is safe.
I stumbled upon a website that will help you do just that. provides information about the shelf life of common foods. Is that chicken you bought last week still good? How about that opened carton of grapefruit juice. StillTasty has the answers.
The site is attractively laid out, with mouth-watering pictures sure to make you hungry if you’re weren’t before you visited. Navigation is easy and intuitive. The site also has a question and answer section to address those burning questions like do you have to rinse raw chicken before you cook it? Information like this makes eating healthy a lot easier. By the way, don’t rinse that chicken. The United States Department of Agriculture suggests you don’t. An informative site worthy of a bookmark.
