ways that microbes cause foodborne illness
There are two ways microbes can make food unsafe to eat.
1.Poison - They can produce poison in food, so when we eat it we get poisoned. [
2.Infection - We can eat enough of the microbes themselves that they can live inside us and cause trouble by, for instance, creating poisons.
In both cases the microbes that make you ill are called pathogens.
