Food Safety & Preservation   Food Selection, Buying & Preparation   Nutrition & Health    

We help consumers and foodservice workers understand recommendations for safe food selection, storage, preparation, and serving.  We also offer a wide selection of research-based procedures for safe home food preservation.

We help consumers make confident and informed food selection and preparation decisions, considering information about nutrition, food quality, composition and safety, food costs, production methods and processing technologies.

We help consumers of all ages learn more about reducing risk for chronic diseases like heart disease, cancer, diabetes and high blood pressure. We also give guidance on healthy weight control, physical activity and nutritious food selection and preparation.
