Cooking with your TV: germs, microbes, ad nauseam!

Hmm. Don't know who they watched for this study, but I know someone who's had some experience with a local TV cooking host, and she was not too well received when she pointed all the sanitary failures of the show to the producer she contacted. I wonder why?

“Television food and cooking programs were recorded and reviewed, using a defined list of food safety practices based on criteria established by Food Safety Network researchers…. When negative food handling behaviors were compared to positive food handling behaviors, it was found that for each positive food handling behavior observed, 13 negative behaviors were observed. Common food safety errors included a lack of hand washing, cross-contamination and time-temperature violations.”
