USDA Launches YouTube Channel

The USDA has launched a food safety channel on YouTube

Having received USDA approval to post on YouTube, FSIS launched the YouTube USDA Food Safety Channel July 31. The channel will house food safety videos in English, Spanish and American Sign Language.

The resource will be used to educate consumers on ways to prevent foodborne illness and provide tips and information about food handling and storage, including the safe preparation of meat, poultry, and processed egg products. By providing videos in ASL and Spanish, FSIS expects to be able to reach a more diverse audience.
