(2) 自備餐盒
自備餐盒上學或上班方便我們享用家常菜，是常見的做法。然而，這些餐食在食用前可能會在不安全的温度下儲存或運送一段時間，因此容易受到污染，令有害細菌滋生。若儲存不當，致病菌可繁殖至危險水平或產生毒素，引致食物中毒。 請點擊查看更多資訊：

(3) 旅遊人士的食物安全貼士
出門旅遊既令人心情興奮，又可增廣見聞，但亦有潛在風險。受污染的水或食物可能引致各種疾病，當中包括輕微和短期的徵狀（例如嘔吐、腹瀉等），以及長期和較嚴重的疾病（例如霍亂、甲型肝炎等）。旅遊人士在外地時務須保持警覺，並應採取以下預防措施，以免染上經食物或水傳播的疾病。 詳情請參閱以下網頁：

(4) 停電或水浸期間如何保障食物安全
長時間停電現今在香港已不常見，但基於惡劣天氣或設備故障等不可預見的因素，停電事故仍有可能突然發生。電力中斷可能為時數分鐘至數小時不等，雪櫃無法製冷，不少食物便會迅速變壞。 雖然停電會造成不便，特別是如果雪櫃及冰格內存放了很多容易腐壞的食物，但不必恐慌。參考以下連結的貼士，便可在等待電力恢復時確保食物安全。 詳情請參閱以下網頁：

(2) Packed Meals
Packing meals to schools and workplaces is a common practice for us to enjoy homemade dishes conveniently. However, these meals may be stored or transported at unsafe temperatures for some time before consumption, making them susceptible to contamination and harmful bacterial growth. If these meals not stored properly, disease-causing bacteria can multiply to dangerous levels or produce toxins, leading to food poisoning. Please click into the webpages for details:

(3) Food Safety Tips for Travellers
With summer approaching, many of you may well be planning to travel abroad. Travelling can be exciting and rewarding, but can also carry potential risks. Contaminated water or food can cause a variety of diseases that range from mild and short-lived symptoms (e.g. vomiting, diarrhoea) to longer and more severe diseases (e.g. cholera, hepatitis A). Travellers should remain vigilant when abroad and take the following precautionary measures to prevent food- or water-borne illness. Please click into the webpages for details:

(4) How to Keep Food Safe in case of Power Cuts or Flooding
While prolonged power cut is uncommon nowadays in Hong Kong, unforeseeable factors such as adverse weather or equipment failure make power cut still possible to happen without prior notice. Power disruptions can extend from minutes to hours, and many foods spoil rapidly without refrigeration. Although power cut can be inconvenient, especially if you have a lot of perishable food in your refrigerator and freezer, there is no need to panic. The following tips help you keep your food safe while waiting for the power to come back on. Please click into the webpage for details:
