LISTERIA HYSTERIA


Hey, remember those hot dogs Sara Lee sold, knowing they were tainted with listeria - the ones that killed 20 people outright and sickened more than a hundred? (Don't worry, the company had to pay a whopping $200,000 for causing all those deaths!) Looks like other companies have seen the light - the green light - to go ahead and freely dump Listeria-filled animal products on the nation's consumers. Just in the past couple weeks, that includes separate recalls involving more hot dogs, sausage products, pork loaf, chicken salad - sorry, I mean, A TON of chicken salad, cheesecake, and plain ol' cheese.
Listeria - not a very nice word, but at least it sounds better than "feces," eh?
