Detailed explanation-1: -Using one cutting board for raw meat, poultry, or seafood and another for food that won’t be cooked before it’s eaten can stop the spread of germs from one food to another.

Detailed explanation-2: -Separate: Don’t cross-contaminate. Keep raw or marinating meat, poultry, seafood, and eggs separate from all other foods in the refrigerator. Store raw meat, poultry, and seafood in sealed containers or wrap them securely so the juices don’t leak onto other foods.

Detailed explanation-3: -Avoid Cross-Contamination However, consider using one cutting board for fresh produce and bread and a separate one for raw meat, poultry, and seafood. This will prevent bacteria on a cutting board that is used for raw meat, poultry, or seafood from contaminating a food that requires no further cooking.

Detailed explanation-4: -Red – raw meat If you are preparing raw meat and poultry, you should use a red chopping board. Raw meat is a high risk food as it contains bacteria. This is why using a separate chopping board to prepare raw meat is key to preventing cross-contamination (and foodborne illnesses).
