 Context examples 

There are four basic steps to food safety at home: • Clean - always wash your food, hands, counters, and cooking utensils. • Separate - keep raw foods to themselves. Germs can spread from one food to another. • Cook - foods need to get hot and stay hot. Heat kills germs. • Chill - put fresh food in the refrigerator right away.
