How's your food safety knowledge? Do you know how to thaw food safely?

Improper thawing before cooking and improper cooling after cooking are ongoing food safety issues. Bacteria can multiply rapidly when food is thawed at room temperature or held too long in the temperature danger zone.

Test your thawing knowledge in the newest Prairie Fare article >>> https://www.ag.ndsu.edu/news/columns/prairie-fare/prairie-fare-whats-for-dinner-start-with-safe-thawing

Spilled milk. Picky eaters. Busy schedules. Someone inevitably getting up three times. 😅

Family meals don’t have to be perfect to matter.

Join **Dr. Sean Brotherson** on **September 29 at noon** as we explore the **science behind eating together** and how family meals can support our overall well-being and strengthen family connections.

Because sometimes the best memories happen in the middle of the mess. ❤️
