In our kitchen or outside on the grill my family does not really cook our meat right. We never test the meat with a thermometer to see the temperature. Another thing my family can work on is cleaning the cutting board after we cut meat on it. Things that my family does well is separate the different foods in different containers. Another thing we do well is when we finish eating we put stuff away quickly and don't leave stuff
