Cooking Temperatures During COVID-19

According to the CDC and FDA there is currently no evidence that COVID is foodborne.

Even with that, food handlers in all environments (either at home or in a restaurant) need to make sure you are cooking foods the proper internal temperature for at least 15 seconds.

ACE Food Handler has provided you with a free Cooking Temperature Guide to keep as a reference or to use as a training aide for new food handlers.
