Do americans really do this?

Also a black thing apparently. I checked twitter and every single black person is absolutely appalled and confused as to why people don't wash their chicken.

Is your mom korean?

Some people did but then they were told not to because it just spread bacteria.

I thought you wash it w some vinegar and then water to rinse it.

You just cook it properly.

Yes

>absolutely appalled and confused as to why people don't wash their chicken.
Maybe it's from when people butchered their own chickens. Chickens are filthy.

that's how you wash vegetables dude

How am I speading germs when I wash them over the sink? Am I spreading germs by washing my hands?

Why not give it a massage while you're at it

I wash it with dishwasher.

I do it to all meats not because I care about the bacteria but to get rid of the chemical flavors that come from the packaging process. I swear sometimes I taste bleach on my meats, especially fish like tilapia

where the fuck do you get your meats? the only added chemical there is supposed to be water

White af

American food processing plants sterilize chicken by bathing it in chlorine.

By all accounts every health agency has found it to be perfectly safe to do, but I imagine something is left over in the taste.

People don't wash it to get rid of the "germs", they wash it, because the meet is icky to touch in itself and it's better to handle afterwards.
this is a retarded concern. People cut the meat and prepare meat in the kitchen and then wash their hands anyway. Just fucking clean your kitchen afterwards, just use some fucking anti-septic agent.

>he doesn't buy meat with chemicals

>wanting to lose delicious meat juice

also people are too gentle when it comes to pathogens and instead of having a little adversity for their immune systems to face constantly, they avoid it all until it finds them and they end up deathly sick

that's probably why everybody has autoimmune problems now

>also people are too gentle when it comes to pathogens and instead of having a little adversity for their immune systems to face constantly, they avoid it all until it finds them and they end up deathly sick
yeah lemme just shove all the salmonella into my face, what a great idea, what doesn't kill me makes me stronger amirite?

the idea that everything is infected with salmonella is totally absurd

if the usda is actually concerned that all of your food has come in contact with feces, you should question why

How about not fucking splashing it all over the kitchen in the first place? "Ewwww it's icky" is the pinnacle of retarded arguments for doing something.

Didn't the USDA recently lax rules on feces in food because like all federal agencies in the current year, they only exist to grease corporate business interests?
