I don’t really know how to react to this, I fact I didn’t react at all I just took my kids, said goodbye and left.

A school mum has offered to have my kids over for lunch so I could attend an appointment today. Really nice of her, really appreciate it.

When I went to get them they were eating still and I went to sit with them at the table to see my two year old about to stick a piece of pink slimy chicken into his mouth. I made him give it to me then noticed that all the kids had undercooked chicken on their plates. I pointed this out to their mum and she laughed and said “Oh yeah they were really hungry and I didn’t have time to cook the drumsticks through properly so I just pulled all the bits that looked cooked off the bone.”

Aibu to think she’s a fucking idiot?? I was so stunned I just said we needed to go! Hoping they don’t get food poisoning Sad

Unfortunately, vegetables (especially fresh salad greens) can be a source of bacteria due to cross-contamination. If raw meat is placed on a surface and the surface isn't washed properly, and subsequently used to prepare raw veg, people can get very sick. Some nasty outbreaks, including Campylobacter and I think maybe E. coli, have been caused this way.
