Did George Negus feed Cathy Freeman his Band Aid?

 

On the ABC's cooking website they give some sensible safety advice.

Food safety is a big issue whether you’re in a commercial kitchen or whipping up a meal at home. Temperature control, cross contamination, reheating are all concerns in a modern cooking environment.
What do bandaids have to do with Food Safety … and why Simon is wearing bright blue ones in this week’s program?
The answer is quite simple. A brightly coloured (and waterproof) bandaid is preferable to a transparent one in a kitchen environment in case it works loose and comes off. No-one wants to find and unwanted extra in their dinner!

Someone forgot to give George Negus the message when he appeared last night on another cooking show - Silvia's Italian Kitchen.

 That's George showing his prowess with the knife preparing the salad with his skin cooured Band Aid.

And there he is a little later having a go at the cauliflower. The Band Aid has gone.
