my point exactly

sorry, but you might have to register to read the article posted at the Telegraph.co.uk about food hygiene as demonstrated on TV cooking shows. this kind of gets back to what my amiga Ali has posted in the past about being TOO ANAL when it comes to your kids and cleanliness. i like what the chefs had to say about it all.

a quote from the article:

Antony Worrall Thompson, who presented BBC2's Food and Drink show for nine years, said: "If I am at home and I drop a 6lb steak on the floor, then of course I'll pick it up and dust it off. Who wouldn't? This paranoia about hygiene is the downfall of modern society. We are too hygienic, if anything, and it is destroying our immune systems."
