Actor Lee Joon, formerly of the group M-Black, shocked viewers by eating undercooked chicken ribs.
On the 15th episode of KBS 2TV’s “1 Night 2 Days Season 4,” the members of the group traveled to Gapyeong, Gyeonggi-do for a summer MT.
Lee Joon, who won chicken ribs for lunch through the game, hastily put the meat into his mouth and said, “It’s undercooked.” In response, DinDin said, “You’re a little weird. It’s dripping with blood.” Din Din was shocked.
When Lee Joon argued, “It’s good these days, so it’s okay to eat it undercooked,” Moon Seyoon quipped, “Joon, the only thing that’s cooked here right now is stone.” The production staff also left a subtitle saying, “Please don’t imitate it.
Eating raw chicken can lead to salmonella and campylobacter infections
Eating raw chicken is dangerous because it’s full of bacteria. One of the most common bacteria you can get from chicken is salmonella. Poultry, like chickens, have a long appendix and don’t have many other bacteria, which makes them a good place for salmonella to live.
Symptoms of salmonella infection include high fever, nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, and diarrhea. It usually resolves itself in a few days, but if the symptoms are severe, you may need to be treated with fluids or antibiotics.
Campylobacter can also be found in chicken. After an incubation period, symptoms include abdominal pain, diarrhea, muscle pain, generalized weakness, nausea, and vomiting. Although it’s not fatal, it can cause complications such as arthritis and meningitis, so be careful.
Heat chicken thoroughly and wash your hands and utensils after handling raw chicken
Salmonella is killed when heated to 60°C for 20 minutes and 70°C for at least 3 minutes. Campylobacter bacteria can be killed by heating at 70°C for 1 minute. These bacteria are especially prevalent in the intestines of chickens, so it’s important to cook them thoroughly when eating the carcass and proximal parts.
Also, to prevent cross-contamination, be sure to use separate knives and cutting boards for raw chicken and avoid touching other ingredients. Wash your hands thoroughly with soap and water for at least 30 seconds after handling.
