Meat Thoughts
Hamburger and other
ground meat should be
cooked thoroughly because it
is handled often during
preparation and germs can
get involved in the process
Check the label when you’re
buying ham Some need
cooking, others don't When
in doubt, cook it' The proper
method of thawing frozen
meat u\ in the refrigerator
If you insist on thawing out-
side. place the meat in* a
sealed plastic bag under cold
running water
