When it comes to food safety, experience matters.

I’m Jasmine Davenport-Murray, REHS President and Founder of ARF Food Safety Consulting Group, and I bring more than 25 years of experience in food safety, regulatory compliance, training, operations, and public health.

Throughout my career, I’ve worked as an Environmental Health Specialist, Food Safety Auditor, National Food Safety Director, Operations Manager, consultant, and educator. That experience allows me to teach food safety from more than just a textbook—I help participants understand how food safety regulations apply in real kitchens, restaurants, schools, cafés, and foodservice operations.

For more than two decades, I’ve trained foodservice professionals and helped managers prepare to successfully meet regulatory requirements. I’m proud of the high passing rate of participants who complete my training.

My goal is not simply to help you pass an exam. It’s to give you the knowledge and confidence to manage a safer food operation every day.

🥬 THE RECALL MAY BE OVER, BUT THE LESSON ISN’T.

A recent Cyclospora outbreak linked to iceberg lettuce is a reminder to stay proactive about produce safety.

✅ Rinse fruits and vegetables thoroughly under clean running water
✅ Remove the outer leaves of leafy greens
✅ Keep hands, utensils and cutting boards clean
✅ Some people use a vinegar or baking soda rinse for general produce cleaning—but these methods should not be relied on to kill or remove Cyclospora

✅ Cook produce when appropriate
✅ If a product is recalled, throw it away—don’t try to wash it and eat it

⚠️ Remember: Even thorough washing cannot guarantee Cyclospora will be removed.

Stay informed. Check recalls. When in doubt, throw it out.
