Danger: Bagged Salad!
I have never liked the bagged salad mixes you can buy in the grocery store. The few times I bought them, years ago, they didn't smell right and most of the lettuce was already turning funky colors. It reminded me, unpleasantly, of hospital cafeteria food that had been swathed in Saran Wrap for waaaaay too long.
Then, today, I read this. Ugh.

I HATE BAGGED SALAD.
Haven't eaten in years. But I'll occasionally get some in a restaurant and KNOW that they slipped me that bagged stuff.
Now E-Coli?
Forget it.
I'm never eating at Sizzler again.
Sizzler. Heh! The last time I ate at a Sizzler was a zillion years ago in Marin County - there's one just north of the Golden Gate, right by the exit to Skywalker Ranch (Lucas Valley Road.) There were maybe four other patrons, and the place didn't look really clean, but I was hungry.
Lunch ended before my steak hit the table, when I found a huge, lively roach in the big bowl of greens at the salad bar. I ended up with a frosty mug of diet root beer and a hot dog at the A&W drive-in next door...
I swear this is true: about 2-3 weeks ago my girlfriend Kristen is making dinner. She calls me into the kitchen and asks me "what is this?". In an unopened bag, on a leaf of spinach was a dead bug at least 1" long. I couldn't eat salad for a week. OF course they say the average person eats about 5 lbs. of bugs a year in foods.
Ohhhhh, nasty. I think my bagged salad days are waaaay over. {{shudder}}
E.coli in lettuce, and my mentor keels over with a heart attack while exercising (he's okay now).
Healthy stuff will kill you.
