I rinse raw chicken in a bowl of water, then wash the bowl. If the CDC doesn’t like it they can pound sand.
They must think people are willy-nilly slinging the chicken and wash water around the whole kitchen.
I kosher salt my chicken. I’m not even Jewish. I just know smart and cheap when I see it.
The stupidity about this thread is that if you have a chicken that is carrying campylobacter, it also may contain salmonella, clostridium perfringens, and other bacteria. But only in a raw state. If you use gloves, and do not splash the liquid of the chicken around, and clean up the bowl, utensils, and surface, according to the CDC cooking to a temp of over 165 degrees internal kills all the bacteria.
Therefore, it is not advisable to eat raw chicken and not clean up like you should and would anyway. Otherwise, eating raw chicken is going to give you these bacterias whether you wash the thing or not. And chickens are a dirty animal. I don’t wish to eat waste or dirt with my sterilized chicken from the oven. So, like you, we wash the thing before consuming it cooked. Never had the guts to eat one raw. Closest I came was shooting one in the wild and cooking it over a campfire when I got tired of K’s in northern Florida in the mid 70’s. I washed it out in the creek after plucking and cleaning it. Wasn’t too bad, but I was sick of rations.
