Having done a number of feasts, I can certainly
understand 'why' some foods can make their way out of
the kitchen prior to the completion of their alotted
cooking time... often times these feasts (at least in
my neighborhood) are held at halls which are woefully
ill-equipped for the task (few, if any ovens, poor or
no refridgeration, etc).  However, this is no excuse
for poor food handling techniques.  Any cook worth his
salt knows that extra care must be taken with all
potentially hazardous foods, chicken in particular.

However, undercooked chicken is certainly not an
allergen...
