PAFT South Luzon Chapter

21/04/2026

🇵🇭 April is Filipino Food Month!

It’s a time to celebrate the richness of our local cuisine — from bulalo of Batangas, Bicol Express, to classic adobo that bring families together.

But while we enjoy these well-loved dishes, food safety remains just as important — especially during the summer season.

During hot weather, thawing meat on the kitchen counter may seem convenient, but it allows bacteria to multiply quickly.

Sa madaling salita, habang natutunaw ang karne, puwede ring dumami ang bacteria.

Safer options like thawing in the refrigerator or using cold water help keep food out of the danger zone and protect your family.

👉 Kaya sa food processing, controlled thawing and temperature management are strictly applied to ensure safety.

👉 Safe thawing = safer lutong bahay.
