However that was one instance. Never had a problem with outside food otherwise, fund raisers included.
Thing is there is only so much the authorities could do. Even with reputable establishments you're never sure what's going on day to day.

Bbq chicken for eg is cooked onsite and placed in coolers to keep hot until packed into boxes
To prevent further outbreaks it is suggested that rice should be boiled in smaller quantities on several occasions during the day, thereby reducing the storage time before frying. After boiling the rice should either be kept hot (> 63° C.) or cooled quickly and transferred to a refrigerator within 2 hr. of cooking. Boiled or fried rice must not be stored under warm conditions especially in the range 15-50° C.

There have been several outbreaks in the past. I have experienced this bacteria. 2 days of wishing death boy.To prevent further outbreaks it is suggested that rice should be boiled in smaller quantities on several occasions during the day, thereby reducing the storage time before frying.

Tell me how many places in Trinidad that serves food know this? Do they even inspect the places for this?
Who supplied the bbq tho?hong kong phooey wrote:See article below
I notice there are many BBQ, Curry Que etc to raise funds for various reasons, is this legal? are there any checks or standards to ensure what happened will not re-occur.
How often are food outlets inspected not only during working hours but at night to ensure that animals and insects do not contaminate utensils?

mayo is made from raw eggs. it is literally a culture medium for bacteria. it will go bad quickly once it is taken out of refrigeration.
rice, chicken, etc, will generally be fine sitting at room temperature for a few hours. mayo based stuff... very risky unless it is taken directly from a cold-box at time of serving.

So out of the bottle it is sanitized, it's the temperature conditions and mixing with other ingredients in the dish which encourage bacteria.
