Want to know the BEST method to clean meats?







Simply putting in the oven

There are some bacteria that thrive in high temperatures.

A good trick to clean meats is using apple cider vinegar or lemon juice wash. It will kill bacteria and parasites.

You can also use it on your veggies too.

Well, we know you’re black, because that’s what we do LOL

Vinegar and lemon juice do not kill virus’s on your food.

Black/poor people have these cultural practices because food wasn’t always the best quality for us.

It would be old, not so fresh and not so clean so the lemon juice/vinegar wash wash was to get rid of bad smells and literal dirt and grime on the food.

Today food doesn’t come stinky and dirty so the lemon juice step is just something we’ve all learned from our elders that did it out of necessity.

I said bacteria and parasites not viruses. They're not the same organisms.

It does not kill bacteria or parasites either (not in concentrations that would be suitable for cleaning food)

So you been washing and cleaning your groceries all your life?

Always washed your hands every time you came in the house from childhood?

Always kept hand sanitizer in the car?

I’ve always kept sanitizer in my purse, always washed my hands as soon as I come in. Take my shoes off too and outside clothes

I always wash my produce, used to use soap and a little bleach but stopped and use more gentle stuff now. As far as processed foods, pre covid I would move everything out of the way and get the one from the back that everyone hasn’t been touching on. I’d use it then wash my hands before eating.

I have mild ocd

This was always a rule. That and changing clothes when you come in.

you wash your cereal boxes?

This is pretty standard. I don’t know if it’s a woman thing but I was taught to live this way since I was a kid. I think men just don’t care.

The stuff you listed is standard.

I also have 2 sets of slippers (separate set for upstairs/master bedroom that is never worn downstairs)

Don’t wear shoes beyond foyer

Don’t put purse/bags on bed or seating in master bedroom (any bed/seating upstairs) without wiping the bottom with a cleaning wipe (Lysol wipe or something) because I don’t want germs from outside in bedroom

Never sit on bed with outside clothes

Never take food upstairs/in bedrooms. No exceptions ever. Only thing that goes upstairs is water or tea

I probably wash my hands at least 25x a day.

You never touched your face without washing your hands because that helps prevent acne, but especially after covid/ being around sick people in general.

Use paper towel/tissue to touch handles and light switches because they are filthy

Use gloves @ gas station or at least wipes so I don’t touch any surfaces when getting gas

Etc


I only wear masks around patients, tho, or sick ppl in general. Other than that I’ve been done with the mask thing for a minute.

Nothing wrong with washing your food, just use a bowl or a dish of some sort. When i was working in a fine dining restaurant we had a giant salad spinner to wash our green leafy veggies. but we were mostly just concerned with removing dirt,

People that treat their bare naked sink like a bathtub for food are the ones the food industry is talking about when they say don't wash your food. because they are just creating a petri dish of germs. But putting your raw chicken in a bowl with some lemon juice is fine,

ultimately the safest way to ensure your meat is safe to eat and germ free is to cook them to the recommended internal temp where bacteria dies.
Fire is and will always be a greater disinfectant that actual disinfectant, and much better disinfectant than just rinsing with water in the sink.

You mean like wash the packaging on the outside?

You can’t really “wash” germs off food.

First of all, I wasn't talking about washing the literal food. We always washed our vegetables and meat or whatever we was eating.

I'm talking about buying a bag of chips or popcorn. I sanitize the bag now. I wasn't doing that before and I don't know too many people that were.

My dad taught me at a young age to grab things from the back so I still do that now.

We washed our hands before eating. We didn't wash our hands every time we came in the house.

If I go outside right now, when I come back inside I'm going right to the sink to wash my hands. Every time I go outside and come back in the house, I clean my hands now.

And yes I clean cereal boxes. I don't wash them but I will wipe them with the lysol wipes. That's what I do for things that can't be washed. But if it can survive soap and water, it's getting soap and water.

My mother would always tell me to use a wipe or something when grabbing a shopping cart but I very rarely did it cause at the time I was like, I ain't no prissy fxggot.

Now though?

@Gloxina my parents taught me not to eat in the bedroom but I bushed that rule.

 

[diggy]

I just eat in the bath

Don't do that, that's bigot behavior

Sanitizers stays on deck and disinfectant wipes are now a essential for me. During and after the Pandemic showed me how disgusting people can be.
