The results of the study have shown an absence of faecal and total coliforms, of Staphylococcus aureus and Salmonella in all studied foods (dates, cachir, soup and cake). The dates and soup samples taken from a meal served at the primary school, presented a good hygienic quality.

The number of total mesophiles was around 262.72 103 CFU / ml for the madeleine. The number of yeast colonies calculated was 69.09 104 CFU / ml for coffee and 232.72 104 CFU / ml for the madeleine.
