‘Don’t Wash Raw Meat’ – WHO Warns, Explains Why
The World Health Organisation (WHO) has sparked a debate after warning people against washing raw meat.
In a post shared on Facebook, the health organisation advice:
“Wash fruits and vegetables with clean water. Do not wash raw meat, as this can spread harmful microorganisms to hands, surfaces, utensils, or other food.”
The advice sparked a debate in the comment section.
Some commenters agreed that raw beef, chicken, turkey and other meats should not be washed because it spreads bacteria. Others insisted meat should be washed before cooking.
And many others were left confused, asking how meat can be cooked without the dirt being washed off.
