    Default Trying to keep calm:(

    Hey guys, worrying as usual
    Tonight my parents came back from the supermarket with food and there was a big family size macaroni with smoked bacon cubes on it. It said on the pack the macaroni was already cooked but you had to oven it? I thought since it was such a big package that's why you couldn't microwave it...

    Microwaved it.
    so eating a small plate of the macaroni.. Pasta is fine but then I realise the smoked bacon cubes aren't cooked!!! Would any bacteria be on the macaroni because I only microwaved the bacon for a minute??
    Arggg help!(

    They were little cut up pieces, so only a little bit! I'm more worried that the raw smoked pork bacon might have contaminated the macaroni as it was only microwaved for a minute? Macaroni was already cooked As it said on the box xx

    If they were only little pieces i think the macaroni was fine :-) i don't rekon they would be enough to contaminate it

    As far as Im aware bacon is already cooked? You buy it cooked, and then fry it up or cook it again to release more flavour and thats just how you use it. Microwaving kills germs as far as I know as well. I really think your fine here. You didnt even eat it all and there weould be preservatives in that meal keeping it alive and safe
    No passion so effectively robs the mind of all its powers of acting and reasoning as fear.

    You can eat raw bacon and be fine. It's smoked, which means that it's technically already cooked - people just fry it up to make it crispy. You are 100% fine for SURE!
