Organic assumes free range? Game bids can be served medium, as they are wild & do not have the same contact with salmonella.

Typical of our government, rather than deal with the problem at the source, bad farming, over-worked underpaid workers, little restrictions/inspections of packing plants, they toss the responsibility to the people. When people fall ill, they like to blame 'sloppy handling in the kitchen. If they did their job properly before the meat got to the kitchen, it would be a NON-ISSUE. I never check temperature of chicken meat (you didn't say what cut it is). Most contamination, when it occurs, is on the surface. It is not inside the meat. This is why ground beef/chicken/turkey is most dangerous. It renders all the parts used as a surface. Read Marion Nestle. You will understand the answer to your question better.<a href="http://www.fresh-coffee.com/coffee/kenya-coffee.htm"> Greenthumb</a> First of all, according to Marion Nestle in her book, ‘Food Politics’, the minimum temperature was supposed to be 155f and the FDA decided to up it 10 just because.

Chicken can be cooked to 160-ish as long as it is removed from the heat source and allowed to rest. Carry over cooking time will bring it up the 'required' 5 degrees or so.
