5 Foods You Should Never Wash Before Cooking, According to USDA

Washing food usually sounds like a sensible safety step. But when certain raw foods are placed under a running faucet, that rinse can make your kitchen less safe -- not more. Water does not reliably remove the harmful bacteria that may be present on raw animal products. Instead, droplets can carry those germs into the sink, onto countertops and utensils, and even onto nearby food.

No, Trump Doesn't Care About the Midterms. The Only Election that Matters is Israel's.

There is a lot of commentary that Trump doesn’t care about the midterm. The fact is that at eighty and in poor health he is aware that he will not get another term. This explains his name being plastered on anything that stands still and his self-dealing. His base, which is a pie cut into three unequal pieces, all seem okay with this.

Tiffany Trump: The Apple That Didn't Fall Far From The Tree

I think we all know that there is something very off about the Trump dynasty, that sprawling American tragedy dressed up in Brioni suits and spray tans, where each act reveals fresh horrors that somehow manage to surpass the last. Donald Trump himself is a menacing wonder to behold on so many levels, a figure so cartoonishly malevolent that fiction writers would reject him as too implausible. Normally, one would argue that dragging politicians' children into the spotlight crosses an ethical line, after all, most didn't choose the glare of public scrutiny. But the Trump offspring? They don't just seek the spotlight; they sprint toward it with the desperation of moths to a flame.
