Campylobacter is the most common cause of poultry-related foodborne illness, followed by Salmonella and E. coli.

According to the USDA, poultry should be cooked to an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) to ensure its safety and eliminate harmful bacteria.

Reusing the same marinade for cooked and raw poultry can lead to cross-contamination and increase the risk of foodborne illness. It is important to use a fresh marinade for cooked poultry.

Raw poultry should be stored in the refrigerator for a maximum of 1-2 days to maintain its quality and prevent spoilage.

Chilling poultry rapidly after cooking helps to prevent the growth of bacteria and ensures its safety for consumption.

Discoloration of the meat, sour or off odor, and slimy texture are all common signs of spoilage in poultry and indicate that it should not be consumed.

The HACCP system is designed to identify and control potential hazards in the poultry processing process to ensure the safety of the final product.

Packaging the poultry in a sterile environment is not a critical control point in poultry processing, as it does not directly affect the safety of the product.

Microbiological testing in poultry processing serves multiple purposes, including ensuring the safety of the final product, monitoring the effectiveness of the HACCP system, and identifying potential sources of contamination.

Thawing frozen poultry in the refrigerator is the safest method, as it allows the poultry to thaw slowly and evenly, preventing the growth of bacteria.

Using a meat thermometer is essential to ensure that poultry is cooked to a safe internal temperature, eliminating harmful bacteria and preventing foodborne illness.

Leaving cooked poultry at room temperature for more than two hours can allow bacteria to grow and multiply, increasing the risk of foodborne illness. Cooked poultry should be refrigerated or frozen within two hours of cooking.

Cooked poultry can be stored in the refrigerator for a maximum of 3-4 days to maintain its quality and prevent spoilage.

Ostrich is not a common type of poultry, as it is typically classified as a ratite bird.

Poultry inspection serves multiple purposes, including ensuring the safety and wholesomeness of poultry products, grading poultry products based on their quality, and preventing the spread of poultry diseases.
