Shame because I like diced chicken fried off with cajun seasoning and served with cous cous Cheers Rod Miles

I knew that enrolling you would not fail. If you have any of the preserved lemons left, they could be dabbed behind Miles's ears, leaving a lovely scent wafting around the kitchen as he glides from pots to pans :) Elsie Cid,

They were very clean and diligent, the EHO that used to follow up the complaint knew the score. Invariably the complaint was lodged by a woman whose husband had been 'poisoned' In reality he'd drunk too much, had fish n chips on the way home and because he was subsequently sick told his wife it was a dodgy meat pie or something. According to the EHO this sort of thing happens all the time. I personally us a digital probe on all meat now. Great to avoid over-cooking but also interesting. When pan frying chicken breasts which appear to be cooked the core temp struggles to get above 50 ! Rod Miles

Armed (quite literally) with our fur edged rubber gloves we'll tea tree everything in sight. Then we'll turn our attention to his lordship's hands, giving them a thorough salt scrub and nail buff. We will mix our own cologne recipe and apply it, a dab behind each ear so that the general haze around him will deter almost anything :) Cid Elsie,

I am one of those you allude to that has no idea of the temperature of the meat cooked etc. All I can say is that I live to tell the tale and am not aware of ever having poisoned myself or others. That said, we might be tougher than we think we are or just lucky. I feel the burden of responsibility on your shoulders. Cid will think of something how we can best be of help in your daily fight against the lurking bugs and ease your burden. Elsie Miles,
