Amid the lively Carnival atmosphere, Chief Health Inspector Sharon Martin advises food vendors to prioritize safety measures.
On the Observer AM show, Martin emphasized the importance of time and temperature in food safety.
She encouraged vendors not to prepare excessive food, use reputable sources, and follow hygienic practices.
The five pillars of food safety—keeping clean, separating raw and cooked foods, thorough cooking, maintaining safe temperatures, and using safe water and raw materials—should be followed.
Martin warned against cross-contamination and emphasized proper storage of hot and cold foods.
Vendors are reminded to check expiry dates and use potable water in food preparation to ensure a safe and enjoyable Carnival experience.(Observer)

Dear Miss Martin
Can you advise as to why the Health Department has remained silent on the fact that the apartment complex on the side road leading to EPi SUpermarket is allowing the waste water to flow down to Lauchland Henry Drive. Is it because of who owns the said complex why your department is silent to this issue?
All I can say Ms. Martin I’d be very vigilant and protect our nation from any foodborne diseases.
