Eating out

It’s great if you are well enough to eat out at a restaurant with friends, family or work colleagues. This often involves eating out at restaurants. Choose restaurants that are clean and that are willing to prepare your food as you order it is cooked.

As cancer treatments can weaken the immune system avoid buffets and salad bars where food sits out for a long time and comes in contact with many people. Food can become contaminated when someone with a virus, often a norovirus, or another “bug” handles it.

Avoid the “doggie bag”  but If you really must take home leftover food refrigerate immediately.
