Romaine lettuce is unsafe to eat in any form
« on: November 20, 2018, 2041 UTC »
Romaine lettuce is unsafe to eat in any form, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said Tuesday in a broad alert in response to a new outbreak of illnesses caused by a particularly dangerous type of E. coli contamination.

The CDC told consumers to throw away any romaine lettuce they may already have purchased. Restaurants should not serve it, stores should not sell it, and people should not buy it, no matter where or when the lettuce was grown. It doesn't matter if it is chopped, whole head or part of a mix. All romaine should be avoided.

Nothin' but rabbit food not fit for human consumption. I've known it since I was 4.

Send it up to Smith Mt. Lake. A certain rabbit will be happy to get it.
