Videos show little hand-washing in home kitchens

Are American’s washing their hands enough to prevent foodborne illness?  Christine Bruhne, director of the Center for Consumer Research University of California Davis, videotaped 120 people in their homes preparing chicken and salad.  Sixty-five percent of them did NOT wash their hands before cooking and nearly 40% did not wash their hands after touching the raw chicken.
