FDA finds salmonella strain in jalapeno pepper - Yahoo! News
For now, the government is strengthening its earlier precaution against hot peppers to a full-blown warning that no one should eat fresh jalapenos — or products such as fresh salsa made from them — until it can better pinpoint where tainted ones may have sold.
How long am I expected to endure this fresh hell? Jalapenos are sometimes the only vegetables I ingest for two- or three-day-long spans. I just want to cry.

Well, if your jalapenos are home-grown, or more accurately, dumped on your doorstep by a neighbor with bunches to spare, I wouldn’t sweat it. The ones imported from Mexico, where they defecate on all the veggies in the field (it’s the law!), I’d avoid like the plague.

I say just stick them up your piehole. I understand you can’t get the sickie from it that way and the effect is undoubtedly the same, and a few hours quicker. “Come on ice cream”

Like that blood in the stool test kit they gave us at work a few years ago. Step 1 - eat no red meat for two days.
Hell. Neither me nor any of my friends could remember the last time we went ONE day without any red meat. I threw the whole thing in the trash.

And everybody knows blood in the stool is cured by a higher concentration of japs, just out of cellular fear, anyway.
I should use this stupid, hardly-read blog as a food diary. Yesterday, I had sunflower seeds, a breakfast on a bun from Whataburger, and the crispy beef taco combo from Taco Cabana. Today I had a nice lttle double cheeseburger with raw onions and pickles. Nothing else so far, though I might fix a turkey sammich later so I don’t wake up with a headache tomorrow. Or a Totinos party pizza. Those are life-savers.
I should start growing my own japs. I eat enough. Reckon it’s too late in the year?
