Detailed explanation-1: -Chicken can be a nutritious choice, but raw chicken is often contaminated with Campylobacter bacteria and sometimes with Salmonella and Clostridium perfringens bacteria. If you eat undercooked chicken, you can get a foodborne illness, also called food poisoning.
Detailed explanation-2: -Wash hands with soap and clean, running water for at least 20 seconds before and after handling food, especially after touching raw or undercooked eggs, meats, poultry (like chicken and turkey), seafood, or their juices.
Detailed explanation-3: -Although less common, you could also get salmonella from cooked meat if you don’t reheat it to the proper temperature before serving leftovers. It may have become contaminated in between when it finished cooking and when you serve it again, so it is best to take precautions and fully reheat your leftovers.
