Comments on: About Those Spanish Cucumbers … https://whynow.dumka.us/2011/06/03/about-those-spanish-cucumbers/ On-line Opinion Magazine...OK, it's a blog Sat, 04 Jun 2011 18:41:15 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.4.3 By: Bryan https://whynow.dumka.us/2011/06/03/about-those-spanish-cucumbers/comment-page-1/#comment-56690 Sat, 04 Jun 2011 18:41:15 +0000 http://whynow.dumka.us/?p=20956#comment-56690 Logically, the problem is in the distribution network, i.e. the warehouses aren’t labs – if something comes in that’s contaminated, the contamination will be spread to other things in the warehouse. That’s why I segregate the meat, eggs, etc. from the other food, and clean up thoroughly after preparing them, before dealing with other things. I wash the veggies before I peel, slice, or dice them, and wash my hands at the same time.

As I have said before, if you have ever had food poisoning, you don’t want to go through it again. You make it a habit, and you don’t have to think about it – you just do it.

… henceforth to be nicknamed “Gad Cukes!”

Seriously, this kind of event makes me nervous, even if it’s an ocean away. I don’t eat cukes a lot, but I do consume a lot of raw veggies. We live in troubled times…
