Hi! I am a veterinarian, and run a blog all about food and food safety. You can find me at AgriCultured.org. For food safety reasons, you should not rinse your chicken. While it might seem like rinsing chicken is a good way to get any “things” off, it will actually spread any bacteria that might be there all over your chicken. No matter how careful you are, there are always micro-droplets of water that bounce off the chicken, and these tiny drops can carry bacteria all over your chicken, not just into the sink. If there are any bacteria on the chicken, they will be killed during cooking. If you are interested, you can read more about it here: http://agricultured.org/dont-wash-chicken/. Let me know if you have other questions, or if I can help you more!

Hi there!
I’ve visited processing facilities before and did not come away with the impression that things were being missed… it seemed like everyone had a job and they did it. That and there were meat inspectors there to oversee the whole thing. Just wanted to share my personal experience.

As for rinsing vs. not rinsing, I’ve been taught that any bacteria on the bird cooks out, while wahing spreads it on your sink/counter and cross contaminates your other utensils and food and that can make you sick.

I was really surprised the package said rinse.

The factories where they are prepared rush hundreds of chickens through every day and sometimes ‘things’ are missed. Rinsing gets out any traces of left behind stuff.
