I am chicken lover and when it comes to ordering chicken, i am the one guy who's tried every dish in chicken..name it and I've had it..But not always is the healthy chicken available ..few weeks back there was news of bird flu in my country ..so at this time people suddenly stop eating chicken and times like those are the bad days in my life..But i really wanted to ask you mylotters Does bird flu stop you from having chicken??? or do you cook chicken at the temperatures pointed out for prevention just because you can't live without it?????

When bird flue came, many people in my area started avoiding to eat it. Moeover, the price of chicken dropped more than 50% becasue not many people were buying it.

Well I don't believe bird flu is effecting my area of the world yet. But I always cook my chicken very well to prevent other diseases. Also wash your hands very well while handling raw chicken meat. Greater chance of getting salmonella from the raw chicken then anything.
