With all the recent media reports of foodborne illness caused by eating at some restaurants, how can I know if the place I take my sweetie this year for Valentine’s Day won’t make us sick later?
Good question!
With nearly 30 percent of consumers planning to dine out on Valentine’s Day this year, according to the National Restaurant Association, it’s good to know that health officials inspect these places to make sure they prepare food safely.

FINDING THE RIGHT CHEMISTRY
When Matt Teegarden first stepped foot on Ohio State's campus in 2008, he wasn't sure where his path would lead him. But during the last 10 years, he's found connections here that have inspired him to make the world a better place.
Teegarden, who earned both his bachelor's and master's degrees at Ohio State, is working on his PhD. Here, he can combine his passions for food, science and medicine to study how the chemistry of food could help prevent disease.

I’ve heard about a new trend that involves drinking “raw water.” What is it, and is it good for me?
In a word, no.
“Raw” or “live” water is not treated to remove or reduce minerals, ions, particulate, or, importantly, potential pathogenic bacteria and parasites. Raw water is found in rivers and natural springs, and is being sold at premium prices by some companies, according to published reports.
