I think it is a very good idea! Also, on the legal
side, shouldn't we also check county requirements for
food handlers? I am not sure where our particular
status falls, but I know that many counties have
different requirements for resturaunts.
I have completed the OSHA (Oklahoma State Health
?Association?) Serve Safe program.

Well, my manager paid for my class, 8) But I believe
that that cost was 18-25 dollars.

Depends on the program I believe. Mine was a full
day.

Eewww! I've seen that kind of stuff before. (Well, not
self-bubbling pork!)

I must say that I agree whole heartedly! I know that
most of us who actively pursue cooking as a pasttime,
become clean fanatics. But I would venture that every
cooking guild might give thought to attending food
saftey classes. The profits from a feast could easily
be earmarked to cover the cost.
