Abstract
Germs, scientifically known as microbes (like bacteria and viruses), are found everywhere. Most microbes are completely harmless to people, but others can cause diseases that make us sick. They can survive on all kinds of surfaces, even food. If food is not handled correctly, it can make us very sick. One of the best ways to prevent this is to clean and sanitize the surfaces that food touches. Proper cleaning and sanitizing is an important way to keep your friends and family safe. In this article, you will learn the easy steps to prevent the spread of harmful microbes, see some examples of the process, and learn the science behind it all.
