  • Washington state says, please cook your oysters

    Posted: July 2nd, 2012 - 8:53am

    I don’t know any food microbiologists who eat raw oysters; they may exist, but maybe I only know the drunks and they know better than to play with Vibrio and its liver-specific toxins. And every time we post something about raw oysters, producers and government-types say we have no idea what we’re talking about – and provide no data.

  • Two children sick with E. coli from raw milk in Finland

    Posted: June 29th, 2012 - 10:46am

    It’s always the kids. One child in Finland was hospitalized and another sickened with E. coli (EHEC, story doesn’t say which strain) linked to farm-purchased raw milk. Others are suspected to be ill. Sales of milk from the farm have ceased. http://www.vsshp.fi/fi/7273/58327/

  • Raw is risky in food preparation for people and pets

    Posted: June 19th, 2012 - 12:47pm

    When I picked Sorenne up at school the other day, the kids were dancing wildly in the sunshine to a Justine Clarke song. I had at least 10 years of Robert Munch books, Sharon Lois and Bram sing-alongs, and Sesame Street. TV. I’ve been doing it again and besides the Wiggles, the biggest kids’ entertainer in Australia seems to be Justine Clarke.
