On Tuesday’s Morning News, Jessica learns how Share the Wake is helping kids enjoy the summertime and Kevin finds out how to handle food safely around the BBQ and when camping.

But the idea of having an isolated cutting board for meats? Nope. Never occurred to me. I wash the heck out of my cutting board when I’m done with it. It’s second-nature.

All the same… well-played, bacteria.
