Each year, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ewg.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener sponsored nofollow\">Environmental Working Group<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ewg.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"> (EWG)<\/a> identifies their top 15 dirty and clean produce items as far as pesticides are concerned. The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ewg.org\/foodnews\/dirty-dozen.php\">2021 dirt list<\/a> includes:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Greens such as kale, collard greens and spinach<\/li><li>Celery<\/li><li>Strawberries and grapes<\/li><li>Peppers and Tomatoes<\/li><li>Apples, Nectarines, Cherries and Pears<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>If you notice the grouping of these dirty items, you&#8217;ll see there&#8217;s no common theme as to how each of these potentially contaminated ingredients is grown. We have greens grown in the ground, berries on vines, vegetables and tree fruits. With such a wide variety of fresh produce making the list, how can a ServSafe food manager ensure his produce is clean?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The first step for a ServSafe food manager is to never assume that your fresh produce is free of pesticides just because of the way it&#8217;s been packaged, especially when dealing with greens. Some greens come loose and obviously need rinsing in order to prepare for service, but even clean-looking produce in sealed bags may still be contaminated. An extra rinse won&#8217;t damage most greens, so even if the package claims to contain prewashed produce, it&#8217;s prudent to rinse before service.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This should hold true for most fresh produce, not just leafy greens. All fruits, vegetables and berries should be properly rinsed before preparation or offered fresh to customers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The EWG also released a <a hred=\"https:\/\/www.ewg.org\/foodnews\/clean-fifteen.php\">top 15 list of clean produce<\/a> that has the lowest risk of pesticide contamination, however, low risk does not equal no risk. So wash these fruits and vegetables before service as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Do you take steps to reduce the risk of pesticides reaching your guests dining room table?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>ServSafe food managers should be on the lookout for any type of hazard that could cause foodborne illness in their guests.
