This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Yes people do it.

No they shouldn't.

Maybe we all should once Trump disbands the USDA.

I used to not until ~~prime~~ people who worked at the processing plant informed me of what goes on. Wash it, it's disgusting. Also clean off the gross white stuff and as much fat as you can. I leave the skin though. @

If you do want to wash raw meat, don't just stick it under running water in the sink, because that'll just splash raw meat juices all over your kitchen surfaces. Wash it in a bowl of water or something

Yea, studies have found that washing raw chicken underwater doesn't help , and actually causes people to spread salmonella and other bacteria around their kitchens.

Just cook the thing to 165°F and kill it all.

Yeah proper cooking is obviously the best way to go, but if people are gonna insist on washing, might as well suggest a way to do it without turning their kitchen into a biohazard
