[Sca-cooks] Fwd: [tri-temp] [MR] cheap/free food handling certification site

[Stefan li Rous]

I'm not sure how good this certification is, especially at this price. However, if the knowledge they impart is good, then the price is certainly good.

I'd appreciate any commentary from folks more knowledgeable in food handling experience.
