The Fight BAC campaign was created by the Partnership for Food Safety Education, a not-for-profit organization that consists of industry associations, professional societies, consumer groups, and the U.S. government. Principles are discussed in context of a backyard barbecue, but could be applied to various situations. The video does not discuss any nutrition concepts.
There are a couple of inconsistencies in the resource. The “Danger Zone” is defined in the video as 41-135 degrees, which is coherent with current ServSafe recommendations, but not consistent with the Fight BAC! recommendations of 40-140 degrees. Secondly, the woman in the video defrosts meat on the middle shelf of the refrigerator. According to MyPlate, when thawing meat in the refrigerator, it should be placed on the bottom shelf to avoid juices dripping on the food below it. Finally, the recommended internal cooking temperatures in the viceo do not reflect the most-updated guidelines. Specifically the temperature for pork is listed as 160°F, while the current guidelines recommend a temperature of 145°F.
