Mystery of the Hamburger Bacteria Study
Dr John Weinzirl bacteriologist at the University of Washington tests Seattle hamburgers for bacteria. Samples show 25 to 125 million bacteria per gram. He favors condemning meat near rot to protect consumers as sanitarian methods focus on additives and freshness signals. An article on his work will appear in The American Journal of Public Health. KE Newton assisted in the experiments. Cold storage meat is also being studied.
