Abstract

  The interview of fifty meat-handling consumers was conducted in Khartoum city, capital of Sudan. Those respondents included meat in their diet, primary shopper and food handler in their home. Many of individuals failed to store meat at the correct temperature (20.0%) or did not correctly defrost meat (76.0%). Meat handling practices varied according to the level of education of the respondent (36.0%), and gaps in food safety knowledge were noted. There was a significant relationship between meat storage malpractice and the consumer's level of education (P<0.05).
