Yes, Butternut Squash grown in Honduras is safe to eat, if you follow these simple guidelines:

a. Wash the uncut, raw vegetable under clear, running cool water, scrubbing with a sponge to wash off dirt, pesticide residue and bacteria from transportation and handling. Detergents or soap is not necessary.

b. Using a cutting board and sharp knife, split open vegetable and scoop out seeds using a table spoon.

c. Place Squash cut side down, on a large rimmed cookie sheet. Using sharp knife make 3-4 small cuts in top of vegetable using sharp knife point. This will allow hot steam to escape. Pour 1/2 cup water into bottom of pan.

d. Bake Squash for 45 minutes in a 350F oven. Allow squash to rest on cookie sheet for 10 minutes before turning and scooping out baked flesh into serving bowl with table spoon.
