ANOTHER OUTBREAK OF E. coli AND SOME OF THE CASES ARE IN WISCONSIN

The current outbreak has been linked to clover sprouts served at Jimmy Johns restaurants.  Raw sprouts are supposed to be "healthy" things to eat but they often cause illness, of one kind or another, after they've been eaten.

Sprouts need warm and moist conditions to grow and, unfortunately, warm and moist conditions are the perfect climate for bacteria too.

Probably best to skip the sprouts.  There's a lot of other healthy food items out there.  I've found, however, that the unhealthy food items taste a hell of a lot better.
