I saw a thread recently with Americans discussing who washes their chicken in the sink before cooking it, which is a concept I'd literally never even heard of in Europe.
Never had to wash a chicken breast in my life, but, the FDA allows for a chemical rinse, but does not require it. I buy smaller, higher quality chicken breasts because they taste better compared to the bloated, plumped, and cheaper packs, so the chicken I buy may not get this chemical process.
That being said, there is no shortage of sanitization steps in packaged products that will leave residue on food. I'm more concerned that the FDA allows the chemical bath to make up for the shortcomings in animal welfare at production facilities that leads to contaminated chicken in the first place. That bothers me more than a small amount of chlorine on the meat.
The washing is to get any residual poop off the chicken. If the chicken was rinsed in chlorinated water, running water over it for a few seconds won't do anything.
Several years ago protocol was changed to not wash chicken because it was found the water splashing was more dangerous than sticking the chicken in the oven to kill any pathogens.
It was a thing until recently when it was found washing is more likely to spread disease from splashing than just sticking it in the oven to kill everything.
Can you define "recently"? I've been cooking for ~20 years now, and I also took a food-and-nutrition class in highschool which had a pretty significant unit on food safety and cross contamination. I'm confident saying that washing chicken was not the norm at least as far back as 2006.
Chicken production is horrible everywhere, but in USA it is next level disgusting.
Besides the chlorine treatment, which they have to do because the production is unsanitary, they also ship the frozen chicken to China, where it's chopped up, only to be send back to USA, still frozen.
Trump was angry with UK not wanting to import it.
It makes no sense that sending a frozen chemical shit chicken all over the world, should somehow be better or cheaper than simply raising a chicken in Europe and just chopping the head off.
We have all kinds of different labels to differentiate eggs. Consumers still buy a lot of the cheapest.
In my opinion it would make sense to outlaw the production of those instead of leaving the choice of animal welfare to the wallet of the consumer.
People do all kinds of stupid stuff that they don't need to do or shouldn't do. But yes, this is one of those stupid things that some people might do in America. I've never known anyone that does this.
I've been unlucky enough to stumble upon a YouTube video of a guy doing a live stream where he is going to cook fried chicken and someone commented he should wash the chicken.
I would do it with whole chickens, to get off all the excess saline solution they package it with, but not to try and sterilize it. That's what cooking is for
This one time someone tried arguing with me and trying to say that american food is fine and europeans only don't like it cause they're snobs and that it should be imported without regulation because "free market" or whatever, and I was just like "my fellow american, I've been eating this garbage my whole life and I can tell you with confidence that the difference in quality between it and European food is palpable. You don't even need lab testing to tell you american food is garbage."
And he basically just changed his tactic from calling me a snobby european to calling me a euraboo, and continuing to deny that there's anything wrong with american food and that European regulators are simply trying to capture the market. So I asked him if he'd be alright with importing Chinese cars to the US and he basically had an aneurysm. Fucking capitalists, man...
I was feeling pretty gaslit though. No matter how many facts and research I gave him about industrial practices and corporate capture of regulators, he just kept denying that there's any problem and doubling down that the real problem is European countries refusing to import this garbage, and waxing eloquent about how the consumers deserve to be able to choose to ear american-produced garbage food if they want to. I kept telling him nobody wants too and he was like "so let people import it," not seeing how businesses would inevitably choose the cheapest option thereby taking away the consumer's ability to choose the higher quality locally produced and healthier options...
This took place on lemmy, too. Wasn't even reddit.
Garlic powder is just so easy though. I wouldn't chop up a clove of garlic just to put on fries or whatever, but I'd sprinkle some with some paprika, salt and pepper, and make them taste fucking amazing with almost zero effort.
It's also something I can always have on hand. Whole garlic is nice and all, but I have to use it within a few weeks/months or it starts to go bad. Garlic powder I can keep around for years and I'll usually run out before it expires.
Garlic salt is a cool concept but I prefer atomizing my seasonings to be able to control the ratios myself. With mixes you're kind locked in to the ratio the manufacturer chooses.
Do what you want though, I'm not here to judge. I just like using garlic powder.
I will never forget volunteering with a magat just after the election and her being like 'just wait! Everything is going to get cheaper in a month or two!' A huge part of me would love to chat with her now. How you like $4-5 gas?
For real. She's 59 but looks like she's about to be 38. If it's surgery, they did a way better job than on Michael Jackson, cause nothing looks fake or pulled too tight.
The more news about RFK Jr. I see, the more convinced I am that the brain worm is not only alive and well but possibly in control of what this guy does. I know it sounds stupid, but if brain parasites could hold public office, it would look like this.
It seems like a known fact that Americas chicken products are riddled with disease and we see in your media that you basically have to treat it like biological waste when it is raw
Seems inevitable that any relaxing of rules will cause this kind of outbreak as you can’t keep it under control normally
Heavenly Spices has issued a nationwide recall of its Garlic Powder after the product was found to be potentially contaminated with Bacillus cereus, a bacterium that can cause foodborne illness.
Generally don't buy food from dollar stores, i think... nutso prices per unit.
I think it mostly appeals to the people who can't get to a larger market, don't have time, or can't buy larfer quantity, i guess. The usual poverty traps.
Alright, do people in the US only get eggs with ridges and flat surfaces in a V shaped box, or did the poster just attach an AI photo because they couldn't find a bloody egg photo on the Internet?

Got my giant box of garlic powder a couple of weeks ago. I'm hoping I'm good until this blows over.

Alright, do people in the US only get eggs with ridges and flat surfaces in a V shaped box, or did the poster just attach an AI photo because they couldn't find a bloody egg photo on the Internet?
