Yeah it was hundreds (out of millions) in a couple incidents at Chipotle. I wasn't defending Chipotle though just mocking goons who claim a mere glance at a Double Down would give them the bends, lupis, and hypothermia

The main reason we keep getting ecoli breakouts in lettuce and spinach is that the field workers who are picking it are both paid by the pound and heavily encouraged to not take breaks so they poo poo in the fields where they're working.

And because they're usually both very poor and either undocumented or have close family that is undocumented, they don't report slave-like working conditions for fear of losing their only income source and/or deportation (or worse)



Enjoy your salad

Addendum

The other primary reason for things like the Chipotle outbreaks is similar. Workers with no paid sick time coming to work when they shouldn't be for fear of losing their jobs or not making rent.

But wasn't the flavor also a big chunk of it? Like, I can drink Coke Zero because it actually tastes reasonably like Coke, but Diet Coke has always tasted like harsh metallic garbage.

same, but opposite

I like Diet Coke but not Zero literally because it tastes so much like regular coke, that's entirely the point of it

Measuring ingredients by weight has been so helpful, once I got over the initial hurdle of having to convert my favorite recipes. It's ultimately so much easier. Tare the bowl, pour stuff in, remove some if you overshot, repeat as needed. None of that awkwardness of needing 5 different measuring cups and trying to properly level them off over the open bag without spilling flour all over the place.

Salt gets a bad reputation for hypertension, but that affects a minority of the population.

A lot of people watching their salt intake are doing so unnecessarily.

Yeah it was just old medical advice, hey we've noticed a correlation here better be careful

But we now know better. Salt is no danger to the vast majority of people unless they already have hypertension

There are states in Australia that have had zero community cases for months on end. Speaking as someone who will absolutely die if I get covid, our regulations by and large have been absolutely appropriate to the situation - helped enormously by the fact that people are generally sticking to them quite well.

Oh I am pro-regulation generally but if I, in Florida (lol) thought I'd be safe just because I was legal, I'd probably be dead
