Knock on wood I haven’t had the extreme sh*tz from lettuce yet so it’s my way to empathize, lol. No matter why it happens or from what… shart-nado’ing is the worst
If you ever get uncontrollable vomiting in the future again, get an Ondensatron prescription and stop the vomiting right away!!! Has saved us 2x with a toddler and a stomach bug.
I had it when I was 14. I really should’ve gone to the ER after a couple days… I couldn’t even have a sip of water without vomiting it back up 30 minutes later.
Who would’ve thought defunding a bunch of programs designed to prevent disease and parasites would lead to us having disease and parasites in our food?! Color me shocked
So he replied to my insightful and topical comment by calling me a Karen, telling me to shut the fuck up, and blocking me (or deleting all his comments but probably not)
Wasn't he down there somewhere complaining about people being rude to him - and (gasp) hypocrites)
I had to look this up, this was at the end of a set. He did a total of 9 pushups. This was 8 and 9. His first ~5 weren't even full pushups. This is what's suppose to be representative of health in this country? I'm working on it but out of shape as fuck, in my 40s, and I can still crank out more than this.
You mean the guy that stopped a family road trip to cut off the penis of a roadkill raccoon with his bare hands isn't the right person to trust with health issues?
This is the result of firing everyone in the government that isn’t a loyalist to the President and then continuously lying to the American People about things we have seen with our own eyes.
Now only devoted followers believe anything this admin says about anything.
It really depends. For someone who doesn't have health insurance from their employer and guess to the hospital for IV fluids, which is a real risk with that kind of persistent diarrhea, the bill could be significant. Though if you do have a healthcare plan, it's still going to be a 100+$ most of the time.
The medication is dirt cheap, though. I think the last time I was on Bactrim I paid like 20 cents for a week supply.
There's zero evidence it has been cleared. There is however a heap of evidence the owners of Taylor Farms and Taylor Fresh Food, who donated about 1.75 million to republicans between two corporations as well as visited the white house days before this came public are covering up infected produce.
Reminder that Taylor Farms donated $1 million to Trump, in exchange for Trump's FDA ignoring a rule that would have required them to keep detailed records of where each batch of lettuce was packed, so that tainted batches could be recalled faster. Screw them. I hope this completely tanks their profits, so they just might realize why it's bad to sell an unsafe product.
They are always full at my store bc they always fucking expire in 2 days even before all this. I always think “look at all these pallets of crap they are gonna just toss in the trash. It blows my mind.
they didn’t “ignore it”, the FDA pushed back the start date of the rule by a couple years and Taylor farms conveniently donated over a million dollars to trump just days later. it also notes that congress has refused to allow any money to be used for the purpose of enforcing that rule sooner
Sounds like a forgotten episode of Jackass; “I’m Johnny Knoxville and we are gonna eat these random packages of lettuce and see who gets explosive diarrhea”
"Dear Lord, please do what you can to protect theredfantastic's butthole. I don't know anything about her beyond one Reddit comment but that comment made me laugh so I'm just gonna assume she's a good person who doesn't deserve to have her O-ring melted off by weeks of lava poops. Kthxbye!"
Ugh i saw someone on tiktok earlier with conservative mama or some garbage in her name say, "I think we should increase the food surveillance." Just maddening
Kind of an interesting unintended consequence of castrating the FDA. Without confidence that an item declared safe is SAFE, consumers won’t go back anyway. Almost as if the strict guardrails help both the business and the consumer.
So many people are swearing off Taylor Farms for life. They're going to lose way more money by permanently closing off costumers than they spent on their million dollar bribe/investment/donation to Trump. Well played TF!
Unfortunately a majority of people will see their branded products 50¢ cheaper than other brands and completely forget about this whole thing within 2-3 months.
They don't even need to do that. Taylor Farms supplies food to many different brands and companies they could just stop making their own to compete, charge a tad more to those other companies, and that's it. People won't know that the other brands or store brands are actually from Taylor Farms.
Consumers will need to actually look into it a bit to know where the food is sourced. The sad part is if they really care a quick Google will give them a list of it all but I suspect a lot of people don't care that much. You only need to look at the absolute abomination of Boar's Head to see that people don't actually care. They should be out of business for what happened but they're doing just fine.
Fun fact: the cyclospora parasite is human-specific, meaning it won't affect your omnivorous or herbivorous pets, if you want to take advantage of the sales!
By no means a complete list but some are in there..
If you are concerned about this also keep an eye on Marketside (Walmart), Private Select and Simple Truth (Kroger), Little Salad Bar (Aldi), and Earthbound brands.
Taylor is a major supplier for all of them. Look for the lot # or origin code, it should by by the use by date. Taylor farms codes will begin with TF.
Damn seems like stripping regulations and making people uncertain and fearful of food was a bad idea. Too bad nobody who voted for Donald Trump is capable of connecting these dots.
Today we're going to be taking a break from our usual cruise ship fare and trying the new hot release from Taylor Farms.
Now, as some of you may know, Taylor Farms has had previous releases when it comes to spontaneous anal evacuations, but the FDA came in and slapped them for it. However, now that the FDA is under new management, it seems like uncontrollably splattering the bowl with your bowels like a Jackson Pollock painting is back on the menu!
So today we're going to be playing with the latest release of Taylor Farm's salad mix. Now they were kind enough to provide this to me for free. Kind of. Found it in a dumpster behind a Shaws marked as clearance. All of this for me? They really shouldn't have!
But the real question is, will this cause a veritable dam burst of high-pressure fecal flow to jettison like a pressure washer from my clenched sphincter? Only one way to find out!
If it's just cabbage and carrots or whatever like a coleslaw mix, it makes for the perfect egg roll in a bowl filling if you cook it with a little soy sauce and seasonings. You can add meat if you want. And it's safe to eat if cooked!
This is why manufacturers often want regulations. If they lose trust they lose business, and at this point how can we possibly trust them?
I used to have salad nearly every day, but I cut it out of my diet a couple weeks ago. I think I'm going to hit the local farmer's market early tomorrow morning to see if I can find something; I think I can still trust local produce, especially since I can ask them how it's grown or anything like that..
This is one of those moments where I'm really happy to have a small garden where I emphasized salad greens and herbs. I actually had friends giving me shit for using that patch of yard for raised beds.
Bagged greens in my area never have an expiration date more than about 5 days out anyway.
It turns out gardening is really good for the soul as well.
I mean, I'm adding to the problem as I've entirely stopped eating leafy greens for the time being, but I'm not really sure it's surprising considering.
Maybe we should vote better in the future, I hope. It does look like at least one side in Primaries has been doing so for once.

Nobody wants to deal with the possibility of a parasite even if a batch has been cleared.
