“Also, use your eyes.” Anything that looks good to you that’s hot and steaming and has been really cooked, you’re in good shape. And much of the culture, it’s noodles coming out of boiling water, it’s things coming off the grill — all of the grilled items are sliced very thin and so they’re cooked all the way through, so you’re going to be fine with a lot of these items,” Drescher advises” on CNN.
