I don't understand the whole recall thing on ground beef and chicken. It's assumed that it's got it and you should cook it all of the way through.

IIRC, the concern is "how much" does it have. Meaning bellow a certain "number" of colony growing units per whatever weight level is fine. Above whatever level is not fine/more difficult to cook safely.

Store bought ground beef is just nasty anyhow!

Washing your hands immediately after handling, and any utensils and prep surfaces right after contact is critical as well. Toss any packaging in a separate bag.

Ground beef needs to be cooked to a minimum of 160°.

You can kill all the pathogens you want.
If they've had any time to breed, generate metabolic waste and die , it will be pointless.
The dead bodies and microorganism poo are what will make you sick. Impossible to cook out those toxins.

Which is why I don't understand the whole recall thing.

Your body knows after you eat it.....

You know that it's a hot dose of food poisoning when the lips and tongue go numb.

You have no idea.
Lol

Oh I know! That's why we don't buy it

 

[WAYNO]

Interesting, the e-coli thing. And I'll be the first to profess I'm mostly ignorant of food poisonings, other than I do my best to prevent it.

That aside, my Wife recently was diagnosed with pneumonia and an infection. The daktari prescribed three different anti biotics to be picked up at the local pharmacy. That was the only message from his office.

A few days later, Clackamas County called my Wife, tracking her to see if the anti biotics were taking care of her e-coli. The daktari never told her what kind of infection she had.

The county was also interested if we'd been out of the country, which we had. But I never got sick.

We raise, butcher then kill, cut and wrap ourselves. I know what goes threw my grinder and what goes into my animal. Same with pork

"Possibly infected..."

"No reports of illness..."

So yeah, let's just trash 8 tons of meat. 'Merica!

For the record, I'm not saying it was quality meat to begin with...

It's not, but it's the best a lot of people out there can afford and is still a bubblegum-ton better than eating fast-food.

It's not my cup of tea either, but the big tube-o-meat has it's place.

FATAL agrees

If only we had the resources to put more money and emphasis on quality farming, agriculture, meat, etc... (heavy sarcasm for anyone who missed it)

Too many humans.

 

[FATAL125]

Too many GREEDY humans.

Fixed it...

 

[FATAL125]

I think the best way to test the meat is to send equal amounts to all of our prisons.

If anyone gets sick just send a small nuke to every prison... two birds...

So two 4-ton cows. Sounds like a woke bikini contest.
