Question
I forgot to wash my turkey before I put it in the oven. Will it be safe to eat?

Answer
Tina,
Happy Thanksgiving!  No worries, for years I always washed my meats before cooking them.  Only to find out that this is not necessary as the heat will get rid of any bacteria.  For more detailed info visit
