Why not wash meat, poultry, and eggs?
Food Question: Why not wash meat, poultry, and eggs?
Washing raw meat and poultry can actually help bacteria spread, because their juices may splash
onto (and contaminate!) your sink and countertops.
All commercial eggs are washed before sale. Any extra handling of the eggs, such as
washing, may actually increase the risk of cross-contamination, especially if the shell becomes cracked.
