Maybe some families rinse the turkey off and then clean up the sink and surrounding area, like they aren't retarded like the CDC. Does the CDC recommend that you wash your hands after you take a shit, or do you just put gloves on? Washing your hands at the sink might spread e-coli germs. How about washing the lettuce that the field workers got shit on when they wiped their ass with it?

Cross contamination with mind cooties? [/quote]
Original Message
With Thanksgiving almost here, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has issued tips on the safest way to prepare your turkey.
First of all, you should not wash or rinse your bird. That may seem counterintuitive, but washing the turkey can spread germs and bacteria all over your kitchen.

Do not wash or rinse raw turkey. Federal food safety advice has recommended against washing turkey or chicken since 2005, but some habits are hard to break. A 2020 survey* found that 78% of participants reported washing or rinsing turkey before cooking. Old recipes and family cooking traditions may tempt you to keep this practice going, but it can make you and your family sick. Poultry juices can spread in the kitchen and contaminate other foods, utensils, and countertops.
