Food safety, I am sure you hear or see these words often, what does it mean? We could probably discuss this topic at length and maybe we should, for now, I want to highlight the importance of cooking your meat or poultry well.
For the most part; Pork, Lamb, Chicken and Turkey must be well cooked. No part of the meat can be raw. On YouTube, you might come across videos that show people eating raw chicken – Don’t do it!
Oddly enough, Beef is the only type of meat that you can eat rare, medium-rare, medium or well-done, depending on your preference.
Here is a reference guide to help you. Use a thermometer, a simple meat thermometer will do, no batteries or a Smartphone required.
