USDA Food Safety Mobile makes its first N.H. visit The NH Safe Food Alliance, a consortium of Granite State academic, regulatory and industry groups, will sponsor the U.S. Department of Agriculture's new Food Safety Mobile at the Hopkinton State Fair September 3-6.

Al Lampson, the Food Security Coordinator of the N.H. Bureau of Food Protection who coordinated the visit, describes the vehicle as "a 35-foot van plastered with cartoon characters. Colorful costumed characters and food safety experts will be on hand to provide cooking demonstrations, safe food handling tips, free publications on food safety, and games for children. The van will be open from 9AM to 9PM. Come by and visit!"
