AN OVERVIEW OF HYGIENE PRACTICES AND HEALTH RISKS RELATED TO STREET FOODS AND DRINKING WATER FROM ROADSIDE RESTAURANTS OF KHULNA CITY OF BANGLADESH

Abstract

The interest of people having restaurants food is increasing day by day and most of them are not aware of the consequence of eating too much restaurant food. Food from roadside restaurants is frequently contaminated by in a various way like restaurants location, raw materials used to prepare food, used utensils and equipment, storage and reheating of food, personal hygiene of vendors. Many people face various foodborne illnesses by eating contaminated food from roadside restaurants. Though the immune system of people is habituated with this food, they have that food more or less regularly here. But when the microbiological system of the body can’t afford this contaminated food, people have to face some serious life danger foodborne diseases. The main purpose of the research is to find out the source of contamination of food, for this type of diseases people have to face, create awareness among people about this contaminated food and their diseases and suggest some precaution measures. Foods and water sample from different wards of Khulna city have been collected and some of the hygiene parameters like pH, Turbidity, Electrical Conductivity, Chloride, Hardness, Total Dissolve Solid, Nitrate, Iron, Arsenic, total Coliform, and Fecal Coliform of those samples are being tested in the laboratory. Though most of the drinking water and food sample from various wards of Khulna City are quite satisfying from contamination but the water sample from wards 3, 5, 21, 23 and food sample from wards
