Study improves food handling knowledge in youth, highlighting the need for ongoing education.
To improve food handling knowledge and practices of children (ages 9-11), a multi-media curriculum was developed and tested by 4-H volunteer leaders. After using the lessons, members' knowledge improved significantly. However, change in related practices was not as great and puts youth at risk for illness. Nutrition education programs need to continue to provide information, support, and opportunities for youth to apply safe food handling practices to their daily eating situation.
