Ready-to-eat (RTE) meats, often consumed without reheating, are vulnerable to contamination such as uropathogenic E. coli (UPEC) during the retail stage. In this study the team quantitatively assess consumer exposure to UPEC from RTE chicken while identifying variables with the greatest impact on exposure risk. The findings emphasize the need for targeted interventions to mitigate UPEC contamination.
