[QUOTE="Running Arrow Bill, post: 692700, member: 9"] Good information Dun! Other side of the story: It is well known that if people cook their meat properly (e.g., well-done for ground meat), wash their hands before handling food in the kitchen, as well as wash hands BETWEEN handling produce, and different species of meats, and observe accepted practices for avoiding cross-contamination, we would not have the serious E.Coli problem in the kitchen. HEAT kills E.Coli. Just because vegetables and other produce "looks" clean at the supermarket doesn't in any way mean it isn't contaminated. People don't always thoroughly wash these items before use. Fish and seafood as well as poultry are huge carriers of nasty bugs also. If people don't handle these items properly, well...hello food-borne illness. We cannot assume that food in the stores is free of contamination, no matter how "fresh" it looks or how "cleanly" packaged the food it. Just wonder how many people wash/rinse their hands between handling raw meats, produce, and cheese??? And...those people that let their small kids "help" in the kitchen! [/QUOTE]
