Good morning
My hunting pard in ILLinois cooked his spring turkey in a new galvanized trash can. Seems to be a growing form of turkey baking. Looks interesting.
My question is this... Cooking with galvanized metal such as placing a turkey in a galvanized trash can and igniting a charcoal fire around and on top of galvanized can for about two hours... would this release enough zinc fumes inside the trash can and be absorbed by the turkey that it could be a health risk ?
I have no idea not having worked with zink and trying to stay away from zink in my melts. I just read everything I could about zinc toxicity and most deals with excessive vitamin doses. But one article mentioned the problems associated with welding zinc coated articles.
So have you heard or read anything ? I am still searching the web. Seems I read something once about firefighters being warned about zinc fumes with shed fires.
