NFPA warns: Don't leave the stove when cooking
Failure to watch is the leading cause of cooking fires
Quincy, MA, October 25, 2002 – Cooking a meal, especially at holiday time, is an important way for people to celebrate good times and express love. But it's also the leading way to start a home fire. As the holidays approach, the NFPA (National Fire Protection Association) urges everyone to follow basic safety precautions in the kitchen – especially to stay at the stove when cooking.
"Cooking equipment is the leading cause of fires and fire injuries," says Meri-K Appy, NFPA's vice president for public education. "But because people cook so often, many people forget how important it is to be careful. With a few basic steps, we can make sure that the simple act of cooking a meal remains as benign as it should be."
