Project Angel Food's kitchen not only cooks and prepares fresh and healthy meals for our clients but, we also hold ourselves to the highest of culinary safety standards. Food borne illnesses are a constant concern to public safety and a burden on our cost of living. As our meals are served to our most vulnerable neighbors, Project Angel Food takes food safety and certifications very seriously. Our kitchen looks at food processing, storage, preparation, packaging of meals, and the production of our food. As part of our commitment to food safety standards in the state of California and the overall health of our clients, volunteers, and employees, Project Angel Food chefs are in compliance with the California Food handling laws.
SB 602 Requires workers to receive food safety training. The Food Handler card ensures that restaurant employees receive a reasonable level of training in food safety practices to reduce the potential for food borne illness.
A Certified Food Protection Manager is a certificate that is obtained by anyone in a facility that prepares, handles, or serves non-packaged potentially hazardous food.
The California Retail Food Code emphasizes an inspection of food facilities. The focus of these inspections are to ensure that the five (5) most prevalent risk factors for food borne illness to occur are not present in the facility and that the five (5) interventions are present.
