For example:

  • When you open a fresh jar of peanut butter do you only work through one side until it is completely empty then start on the other side?

  • Or when you get those shallow tubs of hummus does it have to make it back home undisturbed? Then one of the baggers at the grocery store shoves it sideways into the bag completely ruining the symmetry.

    If prepping uncooked meat of any kind, wear disposable gloves.

    Cooked meat is fine to handle without gloves if needed but touching raw meat with bare skin is right the fuck out.

        Can you quickly tell me why we need gloves and masks for deer? To protect us, I assume, rather than to protect the meat. I’ve never seen this done (in UK or Germany) whilst hunting so am now intrigued as to whether I’ve been taking unnecessary risks for a long time…

            Thank you. That’s greatly appreciated - and a relief to know that I haven’t really been following poor practices for a few decades. Certainly gives me some food for thought though.

        I don’t think you really understand how poorly funded and overstretched our agricultural inspectors are.

        Secondly, who said this was just about disease? I mean a good part of it is, the rest of it is the fact that the texture of raw meat on my hands is vile.
