Boiled in the bowl you eat it from is pretty good sanitation IMO. Great if you can't count on anything to be clean, sterilize at the last step.
There's almost nothing that's unsafe well cooked unless it was rotten to begin with

- markdown 7y agoPrion diseases are a first-world problem where factory farms turn their cattle into cannibals.
- Xcelerate 7y agoBotulism. Pasteurization kills the bacteria, but it takes a ton of heat to kill the dangerous spores (250 F for three minutes).
- nullwasamistake 7y agoThe bacteria is aneorbic so it's not a huge danger outside of canned food
- tempguy9999 7y agoIsn't the gut moderately anaerobic?
- nullwasamistake 7y agoIt's the toxin the bacteria produces that's dangerous. AFAIK botulism bacteria don't grow inside humans
- andrewf 7y agoIt can grow inside babies, which is why you can't feed babies honey.
- staticautomatic 7y agoYou don't feed babies honey because they can choke on it.
- showdead 7y agoThat might be true, but the reason for this recommendation is because botulism spores can exist in honey and the systems (mostly gut bacteria, from what I understand) of infants are not developed enough to deal with it, unlike older children and adults. AFAIK, spores have not been observed in US-sourced honey, but that is no guarantee.

The spores can survive when rice is cooked. > If rice is left standing at room temperature, the spores can grow into bacteria. These bacteria will multiply and may produce toxins (poisons) that cause vomiting or diarrhoea. > The longer cooked rice is left at room temperature, the more likely it is that the bacteria or toxins could make the rice unsafe to eat.
