Ziploc says cook your burger to 125F for rare (and pathogens)

I love Pinterest (and pinned a few things at https://www.pinterest.com/barfblogben/) especially when people get into the food safety world.Pinterest Burgers

Kinsey Porter, one of the folks on the news team behind barfblog showed me this picture (right, exactly ask shown), that she saw on Pinterest this week: Ziploc’s attempt to teach the world how to cook a hamburger.

Except all the suggestions, save one, go against science-based messages. Cooking burgers below 155F for 15 seconds, or 160F = risky burgers.

Ziploc’s parent company SC Johnson say that they are all about families – they might want to provide info on how to keep families safe from foodborne illness. And stick to bags and containers.
