How can I keep food safe during transportation, to make sure it won't spoil or get contaminated?

To keep food safe during transportation, pack it in an airtight container to prevent spoilage. Make sure the food is completely cool before packing and place it in the fridge or freezer if it's too warm to touch. Place dry items such as biscuits or crackers inside a sealed plastic bag and store perishable items such as meat, fish or dairy in either a leak-proof container or ice chest with plenty of cold packs. Make sure to label your containers with the contents so that you know what's inside, and always store any prepared food below raw food products – keep salad dressings away from vegetables, for example. And always double-check to make sure nothing has leaked onto its surroundings during transportation.

Food should be packed in an air-tight container and kept at a cool temperature while in transit. Avoid putting food inside plastic grocery bags, as they can allow dangerous chemicals or microorganisms to penetrate the packaging. Additionally, make sure to check expiration dates and avoid transporting food for longer than necessary. Finally, always ensure that cold items are nested on top of hot ones, so that warm tempresatured cannot easily transfer to your food.
