The health of pall tients who recover from the acute stages of the disease is often pre- ~ maturely prepared. What U. S. Inspected Pork Means. It is important to remember that uncooked pork is likely to contain live trichinae no matter how the animal from which it came may have appeared, or how excellent the meat looks. A satisfactory method of meat J inspection to discover these parasites j lisa not yet been devised. Hence with j certain exceptions it is dangerous to eat uncooked pork even though it has i been “U. S. Inspected and Passed.” in order to safeguard consumers who may be ignorant or careless of the | dangers of raw pork, the Department of | Agriculture requires that certain kinds of ham, sausage, and other pork prodI ucts prepared in establishments opI erating under federal meat inspection I be subjected to processes that are I | known to destroy trichinae. Such , processes, however, are required only _ , in the case of those pork products that I are customarily eaten without cooking. In the case of other products I such as fresh pork and ordinary varieties of ham. sausage, and bacon, which lin the United. States are customarily cooked by the consumer before thev are eaten, special processes to destroy trichinae are not used in meat-packing establishments under federal inspection. Accordingly, unless the product lis definitely known to have been specially processed to destroy trichinae, I it is highly important that the consum |er make sure that pork is properly cooked before it is eaten. The most | effective and simplest precaution I against trichinosis is to avoid eating I uncooked or improperly cooked pork. The trichina parasites die and bei come harmless when exposed to sufI flcient heat. They are so small that [even though present in large numbers I i they do not appreciably affect the value or desirability of the meat for food ' purposes, provided it is not eaten raw or imperfectly cooked. | In the case of uncured pork the [thoroughness of the cooking can be I I judged by whether the meat clear to i the center of the piece has lost its red-' I dish, bloody appearance and has be-1 [ come more or less white in color. Heat ■ I penetrates slowly into pieces of meat ' [during cooking, and the temperature! near the center ordinarily never ap- ■ proaches very closely that of the surrounding air or water. How Long to Cook Pork. The following rule for cooking pork : by boiling is based on careful expert- | / ments carried out some years ago by j a Danish investigator: “ Cook the meat 15 minutes (summer) ! to 18 minutes (winter) for each pounjl j ■ of weight if put into boiling water, I I keeping the water boiling throughout [ I; the cooking process. If the meat is I I put into cold water deduct half the I time required to bring the water to a II boil. I Examples: How long should a 10- I I [ pound ham be boiled if placed in boil- I I ing water? Ten multiplied by 1,8 ■ I equals ISO minutes, or 3 hours. . How | I long should a 10-pound ham be boiled I if placed in cold water and. if 1 hour I is required to bring the water to a I boil? Ten multiplied by 18 minus 30 j equals 150 minutes, or 2|» house, after I boiling begins. ’ In applying the rule given above, the 18 minutes per pound allowed should bo followed in summer as well as in winter if the meat is taken from* I a refrigerator and cooking begun before it has had time to reach the ordinary house temperature. For high altitudes, where the temperature of boiling water is considerably less than at. sea level, the time of cooking must !be lengthened.
