Salmonella Taco Salad
5 comments June 12, 2008

taco_salad_xf08.jpgI had a Taco Salad today from the Taco Express. It was amazingly good, but just as I was getting about half way through Brody asked me if I was eating Tomatoes….

I stopped and looked up with a sheepish grin on my face and said, “yes“, not knowing why he was asking… (realize that brody thinks that tomatoes were created by the devil)

He quickly told me that almost all the tomatoes in the US were on recall, or something like that, because of Salmonella. I just kept chomping down and asked, “what’s salmonella? doesn’t that come from chickens?” I’m still not sure where salmonella comes from.

I’ll admit I’m a retard when it comes to things like this. I don’t get sick very often, and I don’t have any kids so I’m not very aware of food issues. Actually I think I’ve gotten food poisoning more times than I’ve had a cold in the last 3 years.

I’m slowly learning my lesson on food. Apparently Salmonella can take up to 48 hrs to show, so I’ll let you know if I get sick. Other wise, watch out for the Taco Express in Spring Hill, their still serving Tomatoes. Never the less, the Taco Salad was Amazing!!! who cares if there is salmonella

    You might be okay, not all tomatoes are recalled, only certain types/those grown in certain locations. Good luck, i hear salmonella is pretty serious business.
