Iowa State University Extension believes that resources are needed for consumers, educators and students to access research-based, unbiased information on food safety and quality. To meet that need, the Food Safety Project web site was originally developed in 1995 by Iowa State University Extension Specialists from the Departments of Food Science and Human Nutrition (FSHN), Hotel, Restaurant, and Institution Management (HRIM), and Veterinary Medicine. The goal of the Food Safety Project is to:
Develop educational materials that give the public the tools they need to minimize their risk of foodborne illness and disseminate food safety information.
