Funny! But, seriously, for years now I’ve been avoiding Romaine lettuce because I perceived getting ill after eating it at restaurants. When I stopped ordering it, I stopped getting ill. It makes sense, the leaves of leafy lettuce are picked by hand while only the outter layer of iceberg is touched by hands. Obviously, iceberg isn’t immune to contamination, but I continue to believe it’s safer than the leafy varieties.
Better safe than sorry. And cyclosporiasis sounds particularly nasty. I’ve been buying prepared salad kits for years to avoid wasting components that me, myself, and I don’t use up fast enough. but there are four salad kits in my fridge right now that are destined for the trash can next time I go out.
I just bought a bag of chocolate coated pistachios. They are green…
Seriously, do I think that all regulations and testing have been diminished/removed so there will be few impediments to profit mongering by huge corporations? Yes, yes I do.
I’m not as concerned about regs and testing being removed as I am about all the inspectors, scientists, and other early warning types that Musk and Kennedy summarily fired. And yes, I agree that anywhere there’s a profit to made, someone is eagerly waiting to do it.

RFK Jr has possibly more to answer for than any of those despicable halfwits.
Oh, you don’t want to get me started …
Who knew … got to go to the store for a chocolate salad … yum.
LOL! And here I thought I had the answer.
chocolate cake, chocolate shake, chocolate anything, nothing to fear in that mix –
They’ll go right at the top of my next grocery list
