What happens if you accidentally eat raw chicken?

Answer 1

"Spoiled" or contaminated chicken contains bacteria that can cause serious illness even if cooked. These bacteria produce toxic by-products that can survive the cooking process and cause digestive and systemic poisoning. Never consume food with a bad smell or taste, or that may have been exposed to bacterial contamination, either before or after it is cooked. Chicken in its raw state is especially prone to contamination and should always be thoroughly cooked to reduce the possibility of incidental bacterial poisoning.

Answer 2

Perhaps nothing will happen. You might have a bad taste in your mouth, because cooked chicken does not maintain a good flavor for that long. If any pathogens had the opportunity to grow, you could get sick. No particular response is guaranteed.

Answer 3

I guessing the chicken was cooked 5 days ago. If it was contaminated and grew some pathogens, it could make you sick. If it didn't, perhaps nothing at all will happen, but 5 days for leftover chicken is a bit long and it might not taste too good.

Answer 4

You could, but I wouldn't recommend it. Bacteria starts to grow at a very rapid pace and you may encounter some nasty after effects you weren't counting on.

Answer 5

Certain types of chicken people eat totally uncooked in Japan and other countries.. There is always a risk of salmonella or eccollia though..

Answer 6

Why would you do that anyway?! Still if i did (which I probably never will), I would probably run to the doctors and hope you don't vomit on the way. Or catch anything.

Answer 7

Usually food poisoning, salmonella is a food poisoning bacteria from poultry. Causes S & D, not nice, just not worth it!!

Answer 8

Yes. Better to be safe then sorry!
