    Unwashed Chicken is totally safe if you do this one amazing trick.

    Cook it properly.

    If you don’t know how to do that by sight or touch then buy yourself a instant read thermometer.

      Washed chicken won’t be any safer if it’s undercooked, salmonella isn’t a surface only danger, so you can remove the “unwashed” part at the beginning.

        Washed chicken is a stupid concept, I was including the unwashed part because that is the default state of uncooked chicken.

        Unless you accidentally drop a chicken on the floor and don’t want to waste it, there isn’t a reason to wash it.
