Summary
Temperature control and handling practices of packaged ready-to-use vegetables were monitored during two shipping tets to selected hospitals in Ontario. Eight hospitals via five shipping routes in the first test and 14 hospitals via seven routes in the second test were assessed weekly.The large number of abnormalities encountered during the survey are explored, and this study showed a need to establish critical control points for ready-to-use vegetables throughout the delivery chain in an effective Hazard Analysis of Critical Control Points (HACCP) program.
