I am all for saying WTF when cooking. I figure that anything I cook
will be at more than 165 degrees at some point in the cooking process
so I fear little for food poisoning. And only get it from eating out.
Anyone who is paranoid about germs should watch/listen/read George
Carlins rant on germs. I tried to find it on the net but all I find
is referances to it. So go get a copy of "You are all Diseased" if
you haven't got it.

But chicken is different. That I follow all the rules on. As Emeril
once said. "When you are dealing with chicken you should wash the
chicken, wash the cutting board you used the chicken on, wash the sink
that you washed the chicken on, and the car you broght it home
with..." Because of the way chicken is processed it is actually
possible that it may end up with more salmanila[0] it started out with
before processing. I will eat my pork chops still bleeding and could
care more if i am eating dog or cat but chicken can be deadly if not
preped properly. This actually goes for all birds and lizards. But
lizard isn't as popular here as it is in some places so it doesn't get
much press.

Anyone got any good lizard recipies?
