Years ago Consumers Report used to do the same thing for commercially
prepared chicken pot pies; they would publish the count of rat hairs, fecal
fragments and roach parts. For some reason they don't do it any more. All I
know is that my Mom fed me a lot of them when I was a kid. Lesson being if
you cook the bejezzus out of something it is rendered safe from the
biologicals. Greatest health invention: the deep fat fryer.
