The Reality Reports

Should You Wash Your Chicken: Health experts from major organizations like the CDC, FDA, and USDA all agree that you should not wash raw chicken before cooking it. This might surprise you if you grew up watching family members rinse their poultry under running water.  Many people wash chicken because it seems like the clean thing to do, or because it's a habit passed down through generations. However, modern food safety science shows this practice creates more problems than it solves.

Storing Steak Safely: Why It Matters   Leftover grilled steak can be a delicious treat, but only if it’s stored properly. When steak is not kept at the right temperature or in the right container, bacteria can grow and make you sick.  Food safety experts recommend storing cooked foods like steak at 5°C (41°F) or below to keep them safe to eat. Using the right storage methods also helps keep your steak juicy and flavorful for your next meal.
