Summary

The consumption of prepared ready-to-use fruits and vegetables is rapidly increasing. When cleaning forms part of the process before packaging, some product damage can occur with the consequent potential lowering of shelf life. Cut products need good cutting devices, washing, dewatering and packaging, before refrigeration. Cooked and blanched goods are susceptible to microbiological spoilage and need to be pasteurised or deep frozen, with particular attention paid to stringent hygiene codes of practice.
