What is mushy raw turkey?

Here's why:

* Raw turkey is firm and solid. It should never be mushy.

* Mushy texture in meat is a sign of spoilage. If your turkey is mushy, it means it's gone bad and should not be eaten.

Possible Misunderstandings

Perhaps you're thinking of:

* Ground turkey: This can sometimes be "mushy" due to the texture of the ground meat, but it's still normal.

* Turkey that's been thawed improperly: If turkey is thawed too quickly or at room temperature, it can become mushy and unsafe to eat.

Important Safety Note: Never eat raw turkey. Always cook it thoroughly to an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) to kill harmful bacteria.
