Something to think about: E-Coli exists in American beef. It's not rigorously tested for. If your hamburger patty isn't cooked properly by being held in a specific temperature range for a period of time then that E-Coli will be passes on to you. The next time you go into a fast food store, take a good look at the people who are making your food, and handling it as well.

See that sixteen year old boy with all the pimples cooking your burger? He doesn't even wash his hands after he jacks off. And he's been working near the blonde girl in drive thru all shift. She didn't have any clean panties this morning so she didn't wear any. Did he just come back from the bathroom?

See that middle aged guy "cleaning" the floor in the lobby? What do you think he has to live for? He's almost fifty and look at what he does for a paycheck. Do you think he gives a damn if that mop just got out of the toilet five minutes ago?

See the hot girl taking orders at the counter? She's got twelve different STD's plus whatever she's catching from handling money all day. She just filled your little bag of french fries. Without washing or sanitizing her hands.

Take a look at the manager who just handed you your completed meal. Do they look a bit frazzled? Unkempt? Or is it the gigantically obese shift leader this time? How many things do you think are going through their heads right now? Do they look like they're on top of things or do their eyes silently scream, "Shoot me..."? What are the chances that they really completed their food safety audit this hour? Or this morning? Or at all? Ever?



You still don't care if your hamburger patty was cooked all the way because that's how you do it at home? By the way, food borne pathogens can be carried by vegetables as well. Like lettuce, spinach or green onions.
