This outbreak, which has touched many families in the Western states, is both tragic and frightening, even to those of us who were not direct ly affected. As cattle producers, we dedicate our profession to mak ing the safety and health of our cattle our foremost priority. As beef producers, our role poten tially affects the hundreds of thousands of people who pur chase and eat beef, and it is a role we take very seriously. We do our part to make beef products even safer and more nutritious through investing in the national beef checkoff which can help scientists learn more about preventing and even eliminating food safety risks. The outbreak of illness caused by the E. coli bacterium is a terri ble occurrence that no person, no parent, no child should ever have to worry about. But the important news about this type of bacteria is that it is extremely rare and there are precautions all of us can take to help ensure in safety of our food and the well-being of our loved ones. We all need to remember that thorough cooking will complete- ly destroy this bacteria; when cooking hamburgers, the center should be light grey and the juices should run clear, that’s 160 degrees F. It is also important to wash our hands with hot, soapy water and utensils before and after handling fresh meat, poultry, vegetables and fruit; keep the kitchen work area and utensils clean; keep hot foods hot and cold foods cold; and avoid cross contamination of raw foods with cooked foods. Our hearts go out to every per son affected by this horrible situa tion. While federal and local of ficials work diligently to isolate and test the products implicated in the disease outbreak, it is my hope that consumers will not panic, but take some simple steps to assure their family of not only nutritious and delicious food, but safe food too.
