What type of insurance protects restaurants when a foodborne illness breaks out?

Liability coverage in general will protect a restaurant when a foodborne illness breaks out. Given the prevalence of foodborne illness cases in the United States, it's important to have coverage to protect your business. However, many policies contain fine print indicating different circumstances under which they will or won't provide coverage. It's even more important to ensure that one selects a policy that provides coverage for various types of circumstances involving foodborne illness under which the business might incur a loss.
