Answer to Question 1

All food producers must employ a Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point (HACCP) plan to help prevent foodborne illnesses at their source. Each slaughterhouse, producer, packer, distributor, and transporter of susceptible foods must identify critical control points in its procedures that pose a risk of food contamination and then devise and implement verifiable ways to eliminate or minimize the risk. The HACCP system is important because it has proved a remarkable success. Salmonella contamination of U.S. poultry, eggs, ground beef, and pork has been greatly reduced, and E. coli infection from meats has dropped dramatically.
