Journal Club 6 - Safe Food Handling Advice Provided on Question-and-Answer Web Sites Is Inconsistent
Safe Food Handling Advice Provided on Question-and-Answer Web Sites Is Inconsistent
Consumers increasingly use discussion forums and community-based websites on the Internet to obtain health-related information, including advice about food safety and safe food handling. However, information shared among consumers and their peers online may not be accurate or trustworthy. This presentation will discuss a recent study that evaluated the accuracy and reliability of safe food handling advice identified on four popular online question-and-answer websites. The implications for educators, researchers, and decision-makers will be discussed.
