“Let’s Talk Turkey”


The USDA has recalled 36 million lbs. of ground turkey due to a salmonella outbreak.  The meat has been connected to illness in 76 people, and obviously, the death of over a million turkeys.

Officials say properly cooked meat, to an internal temperature of 165 degrees, would be safe to eat, even if contaminated, but a lot of people are quitting cold turkey.

Experts say it’s still healthier than eating at any Taco Bell.
