Abstract:                                                   
Two issues of a four-page newsletter, Food Safety Update,   
include articles on choosing safe donated prepared foods,   
instructions for using a bimetallic thermometer, E. coli    
0157:H7, handwashing, and new food safety resources. A 3-   
fold brochure, Safe and Healthy Bag Lunches, gives a food   
group outline with storage recommendations (time and        
temperature) as well as suggestions for packing safe        
lunches. A Food Safety Education Resource Directory lists   
materials available through the University of               
Massachusetts-Extension program. The Directory could        
serve as a model for other states to disseminate            
information regarding new food safety education             
materials. (Vis. 1)
