Chicken is heaven for non-veg lovers. Everyone from children to elders like to eat chicken. Most people first wash it with water while cooking chicken. A shocking research has recently surfaced in this regard. Research has many such revelations that can surprise you. As a scavenger, we always wash it before cooking the chicken, but what if we tell you that it is not a good idea to do so? Many people will not believe this, but if you also have a habit of washing chicken, then leave this habit immediately. Otherwise this habit can affect your health.

According to a report by The Conversation, Food Safety Officers around the world do not recommend washing it before the chicken cook. This is because washing chicken can spread dangerous bacteria to the kitchen. It is best to cook the chicken completely without washing, so it is considered the safest way to eat. But the question is how many people know about it? A new study has revealed some amazing information that you need to know.

Washing chicken is a common practice. A survey conducted by Australia's Food Safety Information Council found that chicken is washed before cooking in about half of Australian homes. Dutch research found that 25% of consumers wash their chicken repeatedly or almost always. Then why do people do this and what does research say about the dangers of washing chicken? Two main causes of food -borne disease are Campillobacter and Salmonella bacteria, which are commonly found in chicken. Washing raw chicken spreads bacteria throughout the kitchen, which increases the risk of disease. Research has found that the number of bacteria on the chicken increases further, which becomes a major threat to health.

Salmonella and Campilobacter infection may require hospitalization. This can also kill you. However, not all germs present in the chicken die by washing the chicken before cooking. It only removes the bacteria present on the surface. This process greatly increases the risk of infection from raw chicken, as it gives a chance to spread the bacteria cleaned from the skin of the chicken in the kitchen.
