It 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.

It 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.
