Freedom and the pursuit of happiness are the ideals that are celebrated each Independence Day. If you are a foodservice operator, you are certainly preparing your staff for a busy long weekend, complete with customized menu selections.

To help kick-off this much anticipated 4^th of July holiday, Cambro is helping foodservice operators break free and declare their independence from 4 risky and inconvenient practices in their operation.

Declare Your Independence From:

• Plastic Wrap & Aluminum Foil: Store food product in containers with tight fitting lids rather than unreliable covers to protect contents from spills and cross-contamination.
• Masking Tape for Labeling: Cover, label and date all food storage containers using dissolvable labels. Reduces the risk of harmful bacteria left behind from masking tape residue.
• Inconsistent Recipes: Use proper measuring tools to ensure that recipes taste great and that the portion of ingredients produces the proper consistency and density.
• Bare-hand-contact: Using Tongs or proper utensils will help act as a barrier in reducing the risk of cross-contamination.

Independence from risky or improper habits doesn’t happen overnight. This week, commit to making small changes in your operation by allowing Cambro products to help you break free from time-consuming, unsafe practices in your operation.
