Earlier this year, the USDA FSIS issued a guideline on Ready-to-Eat (RTE) Fermented, Salt-Cured, and Dried Products, outlining responses to commonly asked questions for these products where cooking is not the primary lethality step. Some products impacted by this guideline are summer sausage, pepperoni, salami, and country-cured ham. Join USDA FSIS and academia experts in this webinar to discuss outbreaks and research leading to guideline creation, review, and implementation of product validation and targets and future implications for the meat industry.
