Yeah, go for it! I'm totally skeeved by the thought of all those germs all over my sink too. I'd have to disinfect for a looooooong time until I felt "safe" again. I've never noticed any taste difference. I have perfected the art of cooking a whole chicken without ever touching it raw. I hate touching raw chicken.
See, I'm more skeeved out by the thought of all those hands that I KNOW have touched that chicken during the butchering, cleaning, packaging, etc. The idea of NOT washing it is grosser to me than the thought of having chicken germs in my sink...

Good point

We just give the giblets, chicken necks, etc. to our cats. They LOVE them

There are no studies or data showing people getting salmonella from their sinks. It usually takes an unwashed container used to hold the raw meat then used without washing for something else.

We get out chickens straight from the farm so I absolutely rinse my chicken (not scrubbing under the arms..but a quick rinse) and sometimes have to pluck a few feathers.

but do you cut them up at all or can they handle them whole? And do they eat the bones and all, too? I've cut up the liver for my cats before and they love that, but I never thought of giving the rest of that stuff to them too.

We give it to them whole, but they're already used to eating large chunks of meat in their food. *Raw* bones are fine to eat, as it's cooking that makes them brittle and prone to slivers. Raw chicken necks in particular are excellent for cleaning the teeth (turkey necks do the same for dogs) And chicken hearts are very high in taurine; the cats think they're treats

Chicken grosses me out period, which is why I'm vegetarian and touch the stuff only out of adoration for my carnivorous better half.

I'm freaky about my kitchen sink.

This entire thread killed me! I really needed the laugh.

There's hope - I used to be really skeevy about touching raw chicken. But I have gone from totally skeeved to plucking and cleaning a just-killed bird. Hang in there, MamaPepper! And keep your chicken's armpits clean!

ok i totally missed this thread the first time around! two things...i only made the mistake of buying a chicken with giblets in it once. now i always make sure i get the ones without the giblets! also, most of the time, dh does the chicken cooking and then picks the meat off the bones for me.

Gloves, people! Use gloves!
At least that's what I do and I never have to touch the raw chicken, or hamburger meat, or anything else.
I know it's not great for the environment (tossing surgical type gloves), but I seriously have a problem with touching raw meat.
