How to Safely Enjoy Poultry Without Worrying About Bird Flu
If you're concerned about bird flu and thinking twice about enjoying your favorite poultry dishes, rest assured there are steps you can take to stay safe. While reports about spreading the virus through undercooked poultry are mixed, it's best to be cautious and follow safety guidelines to protect yourself.
Many bird flu precautions are similar to those for preventing illnesses like salmonella. A bit of common sense and good hygiene can go a long way in ensuring your safety.
Key Safety Tips:
1. Avoid Raw Poultry:
Never consume raw poultry. It's not only unappetizing but also hazardous. Make sure all poultry is fully cooked. It should have no pink color, the juices should run clear, and the internal temperature should reach at least 70 to 75 degrees Celsius (about 165 degrees Fahrenheit). While freezing doesn't kill the virus, cooking at high temperatures does.
2. Practice Good Hygiene:
- Wash your hands thoroughly before and after handling raw meat using antibacterial soap.
- Prevent cross-contamination: Don't let raw and cooked foods contact, and don't use the same utensils for both without washing them first.
- Never return cooked poultry to the plate that held it raw.
3. Keep Surfaces Clean:
- Use antibacterial cleanser or soap to wash all surfaces and dishes in contact with raw meat.
- Avoid using raw or undercooked eggs. Cook eggs thoroughly until yolks are firm.
4. Handle Frozen Poultry with Care:
Remember, the bird flu virus survives freezing. Treat frozen poultry with the same caution as fresh poultry.
By adhering to these straightforward guidelines, you can confidently enjoy poultry dishes, minimizing your risk of bird flu. Stay informed and prioritize safety to savor your meals without concern.
