Food Prot Trends 36 (2016), 116–124 Baking has been shown to be an effective kill-step for controllingSalmonella in a variety of goods including muffins, hamburger buns and cookies. However, this is the first study that demonstrated that when buns are topped with seeds such as sesame, which have been implicated in Salmonella outbreaks, Salmonella can survive baking when the relative humidity is ≤3%.
