That is odd to me. Food safety seems very important and who wants to be poisoned with a sore ass from the runs or vomiting? Weird. The bad thing is I have not been taught food safety but learned most of it by osmosis from various sources, but it should be taught.
- jiggawatts 5y agoI get arguments if I raise any food-safety-related topic. If I even politely suggest something, I get screeching as a response. My father taught me something a long time ago: There are three kinds of people in the world. 1) those that do not learn from their mistakes. 2) those that learn from their mistakes. 3) those that learn from the mistakes of others. Unfortunately, the vast majority of people are in categories 1 and 2. Very few people are capable of avoiding risks they haven't personally encountered at least once.
- quickthrower2 5y agoIt is not a matter of the food safety - I reckon people take a lot of pride in how they prepare food as it speaks to their family / upbringing / wider culture. Let alone the more basic people don’t want to be lectured to change their habits. I recently didn’t mention some off tasting food at a party to not upset anyone but I regret that now. But yeah … it is quite personal to people I think. Especially if they are cooking the way mama did it.
