I watched a cooking video a few years ago about cooking a whole chicken. In the video it was said "we're not going to wash the chicken". I thought just the idea of washing a chicken was strange, so I checked the comments. It was a trainwreck of people being freaked out and disgusted by how she didn't wash the chicken.

I had to search through several forums and articles afterwards to confirm that I wasn't insane, and that I hadn't lived my whole life with disgusting food habits. But the topic of washing a chicken before you cook it is a strangely divided subject.
