Abstract

We are interested in commissioning a new study to understand food hygiene practices in home and catering kitchens better to inform our risk assessment, management and communication and our broader policy.

In 2013 the FSA worked with the University of Hertfordshire on a study – Kitchen Life – which sought to investigate, document, analyse and interpret domestic kitchen practices. The study was intended to generate insights about what goes on and why in UK kitchens to inform our thinking about how to reduce the burden of foodborne disease.
