Ah yes, CR wringing it's hands over yet another crisis screaming out for government intervention.

Pack of freaking statists.

I learned a lot from War of the Worlds.

It’s why I never wash my hands.

Are we supposed to be eating raw chicken now?

Consumer (marxist) Reports is getting lamer every day.

In this part of the world, we have Hutterite colonies (Anabaptists like the Amish and Old Order Mennonites). They are self-sufficient communities that often sell produce at local farmer's markets. In addition, people often buy fresh chickens, by the dozens, from the colonies. In general, they have more, and better flavour than anything from a supermarket. Personally, I have never had occassion to travel to a colony, but I've heard that you would be wise to have a 'gift' of bargaining if you go purchase something from a colony. (I include the third picture because of all the talk of Duck Dynasty in the news today!

Incidentally, in the past, healthy young men from outside the colonies, have been hired for their 'stud' services, helping raise their numbers from under 1,000 to 40K+. Their colonies are mostly in the Great Plains region, mostly in Canada but also some in the US. Often, on Wednesdays and Thursdays they come to town, in groups of ten to twelve, in well appointed, full size passenger vans. They shun certain modern coveniences, but their community farms usually have the most modern equipment available.

This is why I handle all poultry in the kitchen as if it’s contaminated with toxic waste.

I perform much hand, cutting board, and utensil washing after ever contact with raw chicken. When handling large quantities, I actually use throw-away gloves.

Bacteria and their toxins are basically on the surface of the meat, so carefully rinsing the raw chicken is a good thing too.

[Nifster]

so what… cook your chicken and all is well…. don’t cross contaminate… wash your hands well

[Rebelbase]

I just boil mine in bleach, no problem except for the corroded aluminum stove hood.

[Slambat]

I wonder how much of this is caused by all those disease
ridden, unvaccinated, third world wetsox that seem to be
the worker of choice for those criminal employers?

[hosepipe]

Clue; Cooked chicken tastes much much better...

[Little Ray]

There is this thing called “cooking.”
Cook it thoroughly and wash your hands after handling and there is not an issue.

[JimRed]

As long as you don’t serve/eat it rare, and don’t let raw contact cooked it is a non-issue.

[Smokin' Joe]

No surprise. It’s a good thing to remind people, though—and there are those who need reminding.

[elkfersupper]

Cook it. Fry it, grill it, do anything but whatever these new-age yuppies and hipsters do to it and everything will be fine.

[familyop]

Most Americans are so trashy today, that they don’t even wash their hands after defecating or handling fixtures in public restrooms. Have fun. Enjoy the slide...and the plagues.

Grandma knew to cook chicken thoroughly, and that if you didn't, you could get sick from it. Why is it that today this is somehow news?

[m_cord.]

I have not ate chicken for three years it’s the blood type diet I’ve been on when I smell it cooking its nasty not like I remember how it use to smell when mom was cooking it in the past
