Avoid the Germs
The Thanksgiving/Christmas/New Year's season is fast approaching. And, for some reason we've never quite figured out, our culinary thoughts tend to turn around this time of year to meats and poultry, those beloved proteins that are as much a part of holiday dining as egg nog and cranberry sauce.
But we do admit that, sometimes, the potential health risks of mis-cooking meat and poultry makes us nervous. That's why we were so happy to discover the SensorfreshQ Meat and Poultry Freshness Detector. Touch it to an uncooked roast, turkey, chicken, duck or goose, and the device measures bacteriological activity and flashes one of three colored lights to tell you exactly how fresh it is.
The SensorfreshQ Meat and Poultry Freshness Detector retails for $89.95 at Sur La Table at the Miracle Mile Shops at Planet Hollywood Resort, 3663 Las Vegas Blvd. South, or online (www.surlatable.com).
