Title: US Site of Interest: Food Safety News
Post by: rcjordan on August 22, 2016, 01:17:11 PM
Coming up with a good source of info isn't easy --a hodge-podge at best. The news covers the occasional top story but regional problems sorta fall through the cracks unless a few people happen to die. My reader happened upon this site over the weekend.  Take a look, particularly the "Foodborne Illness Outbreaks" and "Food Recalls" tabs. They might be worth scanning once a week or so.

People have been acting like Louise and I are paranoid nut-cases for getting the Hep A vaccine. We had it on our to-do list so we could eat lightly steamed oysters again, but it was also recommended for Vietnam travel so we finally got it done. Glad we did. We were in Hawaii AND ate scallops at a sushi bar right when their big outbreak started.
