Why do frozen, raw chicken products keep getting recalled for salmonella? Wouldn’t the solution be to cook the product properly? All raw chicken could contain salmonella.
In: Biology
It’s because there is no way to guarantee that everyone will cook the chicken properly and, even if they do, there’s no way to guarantee that all of the salmonella is killed by cooking.
It’s much safer and cheaper to recall chicken than to sell contaminated chicken and then have to spend resources treating the infected people or have people die.
