As a result, USDA is offering tips to help cooks win applause. Or, as they blogged Monday, "To avoid making everyone at the table sick, the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Food Safety and Inspection Service offers five tips for a food safe Thanksgiving."

“For those of you living in the Southwest, we recommend you not wash your turkey in YELLOW, CONTAMINATED river water that we created. Our bad.”
There were no anti-bacterial soap or plastic bags to protect the food back then.
Fedzilla has the largest carbon footprint of any organization on Earth and the least to show for it. Go green Trump!
I’m still sticking with “the sun makes the earth warm and the revolution around the sun in a year makes the seasonal changes.”
I can’t believe how stupid half our country is. They’re all freaked out about false data and propaganda lies.
And the worst part, my real estate taxes, which I resent greatly, pay to fill the kid’s minds with such lies and turns them into democrat voters later.
My solution - not inviting the far left family members to the holiday meal. Cook less, less travel for the whole group.
