Salmonella butter

Post Reply New Topic

Why is it that on the news, they'll feverishly broadcast all the horrible cases of food poisoning and then 2 to 3 months later, it's all forgotten?! What happened with all those tomatoes that had e-coli in them last summer? They never found the source? Are tomatoes safe again? Then it was supposedly tainted peppers. Why doesn't the news ever follow up on all of these really horrible cases and the deaths caused by them? First e-coli-laced bags of lettuce and spinach, then bad tomatoes, then salmonella in cantaloupe and NOW salmonella in peanut butter?! It is all very scary. Even with AIDS, because there is less talk about it and it is presumed "known", then it must have gone away somehow.

because they're trying to get ratings and the way to do that is to tell people the world's going to end. bad news gets viewers, good news doesn't, that's just the way it is. they just try to bombard you with everything that's going to kill you today so that you keep watching.

Usually these things resolve themselves I'd assume. 'Till then, not eatin no peanut buttah no how.

Well I know someone who got sick along with her husband after eating the same dish with peppers at a local restaurant. And I got sick a week ago on a frozen pizza with peppers so I'm not convinced the e-coli problem on veggies is over.

It means regardless of how healthy veggies are suppose to be if you eat them you risk death because we get produce from nasty foreign countries that irrigate with sewage.

I still haven't heard how they think Salmonella got in peanut butter. I have a new jar of Skippy Natural I bought about a month ago and debating whether to open it or not.
