Not sure where everyone's getting their chicken, but Foster Farms has had a salmonella problem.

Ugh, I saw that.  Our Costco sells Foster Farms...I was hoping they were a more reputable brand.  Feeding raw poultry bugs me more than the other meats - the highest risk of contamination is found in the "bag o' wings" or "bunch o' thighs". More handling = more risk. Almost makes me want to cook poultry but no problems so far.  Sometimes I consider using a whole bird for poultry batches - less risk in a minimally processed whole chicken.
