No, Thanks, I Ate Before I Got Here

Do you trust the food at potluck dinners? You won't after you read about a Charlotte potluck birthday party that resulted in at least 40 people getting sick because one of the people who made food for the party didn't wash their hands well enough before cooking, which led to feces in the food. That's how you get shigella, a disease that features a lot of diarrhea. Perhaps next time you should just eat what you brought; at least you'll know that YOUR food isn't feces-tainted. At least, I hope not. (Charlotte Observer)
