FFK26: How to keep packed lunches safe, with Jenna Brown
from Food For Kids
Today’s fairly short episode is about packed lunches for the start of term next week, and specifically, about how to keep packed lunch foods safe until lunchtime.The main issue with lunchboxes is the storage of them between them being packed in the morning and them being eaten. If the hot weather in the last few weeks has made you think about how food will last in hot classrooms then this episode is for you. I interviewed Jenna Brown, an environmental health officer known as Food Safety Mum online, about how to keep lunchbox foods safe.Jenna is an experienced Environmental Health Officer with a first class degree in Environmental Health and over 14 years of experience in food safety and public health. She started the Food Safety Mum business when she became a mum herself. That understanding of how much you think differently when you have a little one to think about too meant that Jenna became passionate about promoting food safety in the home. She is on a mission to help parents to safely save time, money & food!Links from the episode:General food safety making packed lunches: https://www.instagram.com/reel/CTh3CdXDl8E/?igsh=Nnd2ZDZoeXNiazd1Tips for keeping lunches cold: https://www.instagram.com/reel/CiLNDDdDiM1/?igsh=MTd3b3JrMmMyZzRzOA%3D%3DHow to freeze sandwiches: https://www.instagram.com/reel/CjQt3sYjDTI/?igsh=MXd2MnU0b3d2cjRuMg%3D%3DTips for food flasks: https://www.instagram.com/p/CTz8vSWsQ8b/?igsh=czFkZ2QxaXZ3NGR1&img_index=4Hot packed lunches and chicken nuggets trial: https://www.instagram.com/reel/DAG8LmSsg9U/?igsh=cDh2d3B4cm1yajd2Jenna's website: https://www.foodsafetymum.co.ukMusic "Happy Days" by Simon Folwar via Uppbeat
