    On the bright side, food safety laws are set to protect people with weaker immune systems. That one person that died was older, so if you’re younger and healthy, you probably don’t have anything to worry about beyond maybe a more vigorous and fluid shit session or three, at least with e coli.

    That’s also something to be aware of if you frequently ignore or stretch food safety rules at home. Just because you haven’t died from it doesn’t mean grandma or junior will be able to handle it the same. Or that guests that haven’t spent however long building up that immunity won’t have issues. It might also explain mysteries gut issues that keep coming up.
