Cross-contamination is a big problem when it comes to keeping kitchens safe. A lot of this happens because people don’t clean themselves properly.

The Hand Washing Problem:

Many cooks forget to wash their hands at important times, like after touching raw meat or using the bathroom. This can easily cause harmful germs to spread around.

The Glove Problem:

Gloves can help stop cross-contamination, but they aren't perfect. If people reuse gloves or touch different surfaces while wearing them, it can make things unsafe.

To fix these issues, we can:

1. Teach: It’s important to have regular training on how to stay clean.
2. Supervise: Keeping an eye on kitchen practices can help everyone follow the rules.
3. Use Reminders: Putting up signs near sinks can help remind everyone to wash their hands.

By using these solutions, we can reduce risks and make food safer to eat.
