WEBVTT - Was that actually food poisoning? 

0:00:00.200 --> 0:00:04.040
<v Speaker 1>Hm, I'm Manny, I'm Noah. This is Devin, and welcome

0:00:04.040 --> 0:00:05.880
<v Speaker 1>to no such thing, the show where we settle our

0:00:05.960 --> 0:00:09.280
<v Speaker 1>dumb arguments and yours by actually doing the research. This

0:00:09.400 --> 0:00:16.040
<v Speaker 1>week I attempt fate by asking, does food poisoning actually exist? I?

0:00:16.200 --> 0:00:21.920
<v Speaker 2>No, there's no no such thing. No touch, thank touch,

0:00:22.360 --> 0:00:32.320
<v Speaker 2>thank touch, thank touch, Thank so.

0:00:32.400 --> 0:00:36.320
<v Speaker 1>This is a very old many no Devin discussion. Yeah,

0:00:36.360 --> 0:00:39.559
<v Speaker 1>we've all heard the stories. Someone goes out to eat,

0:00:39.680 --> 0:00:41.600
<v Speaker 1>then they're running to the bathroom, they're calling out of

0:00:41.640 --> 0:00:43.640
<v Speaker 1>work sick. They say they have a bad case of

0:00:43.680 --> 0:00:49.080
<v Speaker 1>food poisoning. Must have been the nachos, bad fish. Yeah,

0:00:49.200 --> 0:00:52.920
<v Speaker 1>this has never happened to me. But now let me

0:00:52.960 --> 0:00:58.279
<v Speaker 1>be clear, I don't have a particularly strong constitution. I'm

0:00:58.320 --> 0:01:01.240
<v Speaker 1>also not very selective or picky where I eat. I'm

0:01:01.240 --> 0:01:04.520
<v Speaker 1>not checking the health ratings on the board. Sure, so

0:01:06.000 --> 0:01:09.840
<v Speaker 1>when I add these things up, food poisoning isn't real.

0:01:12.160 --> 0:01:15.479
<v Speaker 1>Or let me let me sayund it's a thrown around

0:01:15.880 --> 0:01:18.120
<v Speaker 1>altitude loosely for my liking. All right, if I need

0:01:18.160 --> 0:01:19.440
<v Speaker 1>to be diplomatic.

0:01:19.440 --> 0:01:21.680
<v Speaker 3>Were you're you're saying, we hear, we hear about food

0:01:21.720 --> 0:01:23.320
<v Speaker 3>poisoning more often than it happens.

0:01:23.920 --> 0:01:25.160
<v Speaker 1>I think, so I would.

0:01:24.959 --> 0:01:28.000
<v Speaker 4>Agree with because people, if you're going to call out

0:01:28.000 --> 0:01:28.560
<v Speaker 4>of work.

0:01:28.720 --> 0:01:31.440
<v Speaker 5>It's the easiest excuse I have food poison You don't

0:01:31.480 --> 0:01:34.880
<v Speaker 5>have to fake being sick beforehand to lead up to

0:01:35.000 --> 0:01:35.800
<v Speaker 5>lying about it.

0:01:35.959 --> 0:01:39.080
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, and you don't. You probably don't need to go

0:01:39.120 --> 0:01:39.679
<v Speaker 1>to a doctor.

0:01:39.840 --> 0:01:42.559
<v Speaker 4>No, probably because they're not going to do anything.

0:01:42.640 --> 0:01:42.840
<v Speaker 6>No.

0:01:42.840 --> 0:01:45.319
<v Speaker 4>No, Yeah, it's one day. You can come back the

0:01:45.319 --> 0:01:45.839
<v Speaker 4>next day.

0:01:46.280 --> 0:01:52.200
<v Speaker 1>So let's talk about actually being sick. What are your experiences.

0:01:52.200 --> 0:01:53.840
<v Speaker 1>We don't need to get into details, but.

0:01:53.880 --> 0:01:55.720
<v Speaker 5>Now we can get into details because this is what

0:01:55.840 --> 0:02:01.040
<v Speaker 5>makes me so upset about saying I've had food poisoning

0:02:02.200 --> 0:02:03.200
<v Speaker 5>two to three times.

0:02:03.440 --> 0:02:04.559
<v Speaker 1>Okay, that's not a fact.

0:02:04.840 --> 0:02:07.040
<v Speaker 4>No, or you know, you know, I feel he's going

0:02:07.080 --> 0:02:07.240
<v Speaker 4>to be.

0:02:09.400 --> 0:02:12.000
<v Speaker 1>There always, maybe every eight weeks. No, No, it's like,

0:02:12.240 --> 0:02:13.120
<v Speaker 1>what are you doing now?

0:02:13.160 --> 0:02:13.359
<v Speaker 4>Well?

0:02:13.880 --> 0:02:16.239
<v Speaker 5>What makes me upset about you saying it's not real

0:02:16.360 --> 0:02:20.720
<v Speaker 5>is that food poisoning is probably the worst sickness you

0:02:20.760 --> 0:02:22.640
<v Speaker 5>can have, you know what, A feeling like I want

0:02:22.639 --> 0:02:26.560
<v Speaker 5>to die, Yeah all the time, because I've gotten food poisoning.

0:02:28.360 --> 0:02:31.000
<v Speaker 5>Sometimes when you're sick, it's like, oh I get to relax, Yeah,

0:02:31.080 --> 0:02:36.320
<v Speaker 5>home watching It's just miserable. You have like the shakes. Yeah,

0:02:36.639 --> 0:02:39.560
<v Speaker 5>I hate throwing up. It's the worst thing in the

0:02:39.600 --> 0:02:40.919
<v Speaker 5>world throwing up.

0:02:41.240 --> 0:02:44.640
<v Speaker 4>Oh wait, wait, we got to talk about this real quick.

0:02:44.960 --> 0:02:45.600
<v Speaker 4>Growing up.

0:02:49.400 --> 0:02:50.840
<v Speaker 3>I don't know what the hell this is about.

0:02:51.320 --> 0:02:51.800
<v Speaker 7>Set it up.

0:02:51.840 --> 0:02:52.359
<v Speaker 4>Growing up.

0:02:52.800 --> 0:02:57.920
<v Speaker 5>As kids, sometimes you get sick and you gotta throw up. Yeah, man,

0:02:58.360 --> 0:02:59.880
<v Speaker 5>when we throw out, what do we do? We get

0:03:00.080 --> 0:03:02.720
<v Speaker 5>up and you go throw up? What are you throwing up?

0:03:02.760 --> 0:03:03.440
<v Speaker 3>In the toilet?

0:03:03.720 --> 0:03:07.359
<v Speaker 4>Okay, in the toilet, right, not in the sink. We're

0:03:07.360 --> 0:03:12.640
<v Speaker 4>not getting things we cook with to throw up into.

0:03:12.720 --> 0:03:15.960
<v Speaker 4>Some people get bowls or or pots. These are these

0:03:15.960 --> 0:03:18.000
<v Speaker 4>are things that that they to hold.

0:03:17.720 --> 0:03:20.280
<v Speaker 3>The vomit, yes, and then they put it in the toilet.

0:03:20.560 --> 0:03:22.120
<v Speaker 4>Would be I don't know what they do with it.

0:03:22.160 --> 0:03:24.160
<v Speaker 1>This is what it would be like. Let me speak

0:03:24.200 --> 0:03:26.600
<v Speaker 1>for my probably eating it later. It would be like, okay,

0:03:26.639 --> 0:03:31.040
<v Speaker 1>I have I have a tummy. Yeah, I'm six years old. Okay,

0:03:31.720 --> 0:03:35.120
<v Speaker 1>I'm I'm I'm getting ready for bed, and then yeah,

0:03:35.120 --> 0:03:37.920
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna take the plastic bowl and that's gonna be

0:03:37.920 --> 0:03:41.400
<v Speaker 1>my case. I might not make it to the bathroom.

0:03:41.600 --> 0:03:43.000
<v Speaker 1>These are basically storage bowls.

0:03:44.680 --> 0:03:47.320
<v Speaker 4>Okay, So let's break it down for these.

0:03:46.840 --> 0:03:48.600
<v Speaker 1>Aren't like, it's not like a cereal bull.

0:03:49.000 --> 0:03:50.160
<v Speaker 4>Okay, what is it?

0:03:49.640 --> 0:03:52.520
<v Speaker 5>It's like a plastic What are you putting in it

0:03:52.520 --> 0:03:53.960
<v Speaker 5>when you're not throwing up into it?

0:03:54.240 --> 0:03:58.280
<v Speaker 1>Pretty much nothing? Honestly, other bowls like it's.

0:03:58.160 --> 0:03:59.920
<v Speaker 5>So, this is the thing I've learned, but over the

0:04:00.040 --> 0:04:02.320
<v Speaker 5>last couple of years is that in the white community,

0:04:02.400 --> 0:04:04.720
<v Speaker 5>they throw up into containers that they event.

0:04:04.680 --> 0:04:07.080
<v Speaker 3>It's not just it's a community.

0:04:07.160 --> 0:04:09.600
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, they have like they're like, that's the that's the

0:04:09.640 --> 0:04:11.520
<v Speaker 5>pot that we would throw up in and then also

0:04:11.560 --> 0:04:12.360
<v Speaker 5>cook our stupid.

0:04:12.640 --> 0:04:14.320
<v Speaker 1>It's interesting that the bull thing bothers you so much

0:04:14.360 --> 0:04:16.560
<v Speaker 1>because it's like, you don't think it's you don't think

0:04:17.360 --> 0:04:19.360
<v Speaker 1>someone can wash the ball, like you don't trust and

0:04:19.640 --> 0:04:20.080
<v Speaker 1>I know that.

0:04:20.040 --> 0:04:22.280
<v Speaker 4>People could wash the ball. I understand that.

0:04:22.240 --> 0:04:23.719
<v Speaker 1>You people don't even wash their bodies.

0:04:23.960 --> 0:04:26.720
<v Speaker 5>I know you can sanitize things. To me, it's just

0:04:26.800 --> 0:04:30.040
<v Speaker 5>like there are other did you not have trash cans

0:04:30.080 --> 0:04:30.479
<v Speaker 5>in your home?

0:04:30.839 --> 0:04:32.440
<v Speaker 3>My mom would beat my ass if I throw up

0:04:32.480 --> 0:04:34.960
<v Speaker 3>in a bowl. But I can understand this from the

0:04:34.960 --> 0:04:37.080
<v Speaker 3>perspective of like it's easier to I'm gonna wake up

0:04:37.080 --> 0:04:38.800
<v Speaker 3>and I'm about to throw up, and I need to

0:04:38.839 --> 0:04:40.760
<v Speaker 3>turn okay, but not putting something.

0:04:40.520 --> 0:04:43.680
<v Speaker 5>Near the garbage cans. He's admitted to garbage cans, and

0:04:43.680 --> 0:04:45.839
<v Speaker 5>it's the bull is not the only container.

0:04:46.000 --> 0:04:50.159
<v Speaker 1>It is easier. It's it's a bowl, so it's easy.

0:04:50.200 --> 0:04:55.160
<v Speaker 1>There's more. Yeah, I think I'm a I'm a baby basically.

0:04:56.400 --> 0:04:58.160
<v Speaker 1>I think you a fifteen doing.

0:04:58.240 --> 0:05:01.000
<v Speaker 4>Just think it's disgusting to throw up into a pot.

0:05:01.520 --> 0:05:04.040
<v Speaker 4>That's crazy. It's like the fact, this is the cleanup

0:05:04.080 --> 0:05:04.760
<v Speaker 4>of it.

0:05:05.160 --> 0:05:07.919
<v Speaker 1>And then you, you know, wash it with lisol and

0:05:07.960 --> 0:05:10.240
<v Speaker 1>other stuff. It's just like anything else at that point.

0:05:10.680 --> 0:05:12.560
<v Speaker 1>There's disgusting leftover food all the time.

0:05:13.279 --> 0:05:13.880
<v Speaker 4>That's food.

0:05:13.960 --> 0:05:16.040
<v Speaker 5>It's not my throw up. Well, I don't want to

0:05:16.040 --> 0:05:18.240
<v Speaker 5>see my throw up in any container.

0:05:18.800 --> 0:05:19.640
<v Speaker 1>Something to come around.

0:05:19.720 --> 0:05:23.120
<v Speaker 3>I mean, your your your vomits, Your vomit is your

0:05:23.200 --> 0:05:25.480
<v Speaker 3>food with like a little bit of a mile I

0:05:25.520 --> 0:05:27.000
<v Speaker 3>guess sometime food plus.

0:05:26.839 --> 0:05:30.560
<v Speaker 5>Okay, But y'all are acting like you don't have other options. No,

0:05:30.800 --> 0:05:34.720
<v Speaker 5>I know in that versus on my bed. Sure, I'll

0:05:34.720 --> 0:05:36.600
<v Speaker 5>throw up in that.

0:05:36.240 --> 0:05:37.919
<v Speaker 1>Is essentially that's what we're saying.

0:05:38.080 --> 0:05:40.039
<v Speaker 5>You have one bowl that you would use, right, It's

0:05:40.040 --> 0:05:42.000
<v Speaker 5>not even like they're rotating the containers that.

0:05:43.320 --> 0:05:45.760
<v Speaker 1>Worse, wouldn't that be worse for you. If now there's

0:05:45.880 --> 0:05:48.880
<v Speaker 1>twenty bowls that are thrown up, I think is worse

0:05:49.240 --> 0:05:52.440
<v Speaker 1>by your argument you have a dedicated bowl, Yes.

0:05:52.320 --> 0:05:54.240
<v Speaker 4>You should have a dedicated bowl that you're not cooking it.

0:05:54.640 --> 0:05:56.320
<v Speaker 1>Okay, I basically said that.

0:05:56.920 --> 0:05:58.880
<v Speaker 4>No, but the people I'm not talking about you.

0:05:58.839 --> 0:06:00.520
<v Speaker 1>Specifically, Okay, well, you're attacking me.

0:06:00.680 --> 0:06:03.479
<v Speaker 5>But there are other whites on the internet saying this

0:06:03.560 --> 0:06:06.320
<v Speaker 5>is the pot or bowl that we would throw up

0:06:06.360 --> 0:06:09.080
<v Speaker 5>into and also make super whatever with.

0:06:09.480 --> 0:06:11.679
<v Speaker 3>Look, I think I don't think. I think we're talking

0:06:11.680 --> 0:06:13.320
<v Speaker 3>in circles at this point. I want to hear from

0:06:13.320 --> 0:06:14.400
<v Speaker 3>I want to hear from the listeners.

0:06:14.520 --> 0:06:17.760
<v Speaker 4>If you had yeah, if your family had sick, did.

0:06:17.600 --> 0:06:20.760
<v Speaker 3>You have a dedicated vomit container.

0:06:20.279 --> 0:06:22.039
<v Speaker 4>Bowl that you also made food in?

0:06:22.640 --> 0:06:24.479
<v Speaker 3>Okay, that you also used.

0:06:24.400 --> 0:06:27.920
<v Speaker 5>Not just like a bucket or or a bucket, have

0:06:27.920 --> 0:06:28.640
<v Speaker 5>a bucket in your.

0:06:28.520 --> 0:06:29.400
<v Speaker 4>Home, use a bucket?

0:06:29.560 --> 0:06:31.640
<v Speaker 1>All right, all right, I think we're done.

0:06:33.200 --> 0:06:36.720
<v Speaker 3>You said you've had food poisoning two to three times times.

0:06:36.920 --> 0:06:38.200
<v Speaker 1>Do you have an idea of the culprit?

0:06:38.400 --> 0:06:41.320
<v Speaker 5>So one time it was it was a bowl place,

0:06:41.480 --> 0:06:43.039
<v Speaker 5>it was a Mediterranean bowl.

0:06:43.040 --> 0:06:43.719
<v Speaker 4>I don't even know.

0:06:44.240 --> 0:06:49.200
<v Speaker 5>It may have been like a cavo or something got sponsor.

0:06:49.440 --> 0:06:51.840
<v Speaker 4>It was one of and it's this was before it

0:06:51.880 --> 0:06:52.320
<v Speaker 4>was crazy.

0:06:52.480 --> 0:06:53.240
<v Speaker 1>It was too crazy.

0:06:53.360 --> 0:06:55.520
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, it's a little nutty.

0:06:55.640 --> 0:06:57.600
<v Speaker 4>So it was like it wasn't even something I considered

0:06:57.600 --> 0:06:58.160
<v Speaker 4>to be risky.

0:06:58.520 --> 0:07:02.040
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, and once again, this is what I think gave

0:07:02.080 --> 0:07:04.440
<v Speaker 5>it to me, because you know, the classic food poisoning

0:07:04.480 --> 0:07:05.920
<v Speaker 5>thing is you get food posoning and you go through

0:07:05.960 --> 0:07:07.920
<v Speaker 5>all the day until you ate. Recently, you're like, that's

0:07:07.920 --> 0:07:09.200
<v Speaker 5>the no one, that's norm When that was out of

0:07:09.200 --> 0:07:10.880
<v Speaker 5>the ordinary, Yeah, exactly.

0:07:10.520 --> 0:07:11.240
<v Speaker 1>Only a year ago.

0:07:11.560 --> 0:07:13.920
<v Speaker 3>On my way back from LA I landed at like

0:07:13.960 --> 0:07:16.680
<v Speaker 3>eleven or midnight, but I was really hungry, and I

0:07:16.720 --> 0:07:18.440
<v Speaker 3>went to a bodego on my way home and got

0:07:18.480 --> 0:07:21.200
<v Speaker 3>like a buffalo chicken saying, which is like a hero,

0:07:22.480 --> 0:07:29.520
<v Speaker 3>and ate it probably thirty to forty five minutes later. Yeah,

0:07:29.680 --> 0:07:31.920
<v Speaker 3>that is when I was like Kevin, it was coming

0:07:32.000 --> 0:07:34.320
<v Speaker 3>right out of me. I was on the toilet forever.

0:07:34.640 --> 0:07:37.960
<v Speaker 3>I had like a cold sweat and shivers and stuff.

0:07:38.280 --> 0:07:38.520
<v Speaker 4>Yeah.

0:07:38.560 --> 0:07:41.840
<v Speaker 3>But here's the interesting part. The next day, I was

0:07:41.880 --> 0:07:44.080
<v Speaker 3>shocked at how I could have gotten so sick from

0:07:44.080 --> 0:07:44.800
<v Speaker 3>that so quickly.

0:07:44.960 --> 0:07:46.480
<v Speaker 5>That's what I was going to say, Man, I didn't

0:07:46.480 --> 0:07:48.120
<v Speaker 5>want to call you out, but that seems a little

0:07:48.120 --> 0:07:51.800
<v Speaker 5>too fast. Thirty forty five minutes, I asked my doctor,

0:07:52.080 --> 0:07:54.200
<v Speaker 5>even in your body yet she was saying.

0:07:53.880 --> 0:07:57.000
<v Speaker 3>That the culprit could be anything you've eaten in the

0:07:57.080 --> 0:08:01.240
<v Speaker 3>last ten days. I think we are so attuned to

0:08:01.280 --> 0:08:03.679
<v Speaker 3>thinking that it's something I just ate that got me sick.

0:08:04.280 --> 0:08:05.440
<v Speaker 4>I'm sorry, I don't believe that.

0:08:05.600 --> 0:08:07.960
<v Speaker 3>So I wonder, like, all right, maybe you have a

0:08:08.040 --> 0:08:11.200
<v Speaker 3>regular sickness and you just finished eating and then you

0:08:11.200 --> 0:08:12.120
<v Speaker 3>thought it was that thing.

0:08:12.560 --> 0:08:16.640
<v Speaker 5>I can see the last I'll give you two. I'm

0:08:16.680 --> 0:08:19.760
<v Speaker 5>not getting food boys nine days ago.

0:08:19.880 --> 0:08:22.600
<v Speaker 4>That is out. It came out already.

0:08:22.720 --> 0:08:24.960
<v Speaker 5>If we're going to say that, then there was one

0:08:24.960 --> 0:08:28.520
<v Speaker 5>time in Toronto, I ate a pizza with eggplant on it.

0:08:29.120 --> 0:08:31.240
<v Speaker 5>Sure something was going on with it. It was one

0:08:31.240 --> 0:08:33.000
<v Speaker 5>of the things where I was as I was eating it,

0:08:33.040 --> 0:08:36.000
<v Speaker 5>I was like something, Oh, this feels like I like eggplant,

0:08:36.040 --> 0:08:39.000
<v Speaker 5>but this is this is not something is up. Went

0:08:39.040 --> 0:08:42.040
<v Speaker 5>in the bathroom at the pizza place. I'm still there,

0:08:42.600 --> 0:08:45.920
<v Speaker 5>threw up. So that's you talk about thirty forty five

0:08:45.960 --> 0:08:47.800
<v Speaker 5>minutes about mid eating.

0:08:47.920 --> 0:08:50.440
<v Speaker 3>Well you use zero minutes if you didn't eat anything

0:08:50.760 --> 0:08:52.440
<v Speaker 3>in that moment. You probably would have went to the

0:08:52.440 --> 0:08:53.280
<v Speaker 3>bathroom and threw up.

0:08:53.440 --> 0:08:53.680
<v Speaker 4>No.

0:08:53.679 --> 0:08:56.240
<v Speaker 5>No, I was eating the pizza. The pizza made me

0:08:56.240 --> 0:09:00.120
<v Speaker 5>feel sick, and then I threw up. It was and

0:09:00.240 --> 0:09:01.240
<v Speaker 5>it was a response to.

0:09:01.240 --> 0:09:04.719
<v Speaker 1>The Okay, but I know what happened after you ate

0:09:04.760 --> 0:09:07.040
<v Speaker 1>the pizza. But maybe there's something in something that's inside

0:09:07.040 --> 0:09:10.760
<v Speaker 1>of you before the pizza. The pizza is just kind

0:09:10.760 --> 0:09:13.560
<v Speaker 1>of pushing it. Three doctors right here, you know, and

0:09:13.600 --> 0:09:16.520
<v Speaker 1>that's just spring it. You're blaming the pizza the new pizza,

0:09:16.559 --> 0:09:17.679
<v Speaker 1>but maybe it was the old thing.

0:09:18.080 --> 0:09:19.839
<v Speaker 4>The pizza made me feel.

0:09:19.960 --> 0:09:21.920
<v Speaker 1>You're saying that's how you feel, that's what you think.

0:09:22.280 --> 0:09:22.720
<v Speaker 8>The fact.

0:09:22.800 --> 0:09:24.600
<v Speaker 4>Now you're telling me how I facts.

0:09:24.600 --> 0:09:25.600
<v Speaker 3>Don't care about your feelings.

0:09:25.720 --> 0:09:28.520
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, exactly, as I was eating the pizza, I was like,

0:09:28.600 --> 0:09:30.800
<v Speaker 5>oh my god, this pizza is making me feel naice.

0:09:30.640 --> 0:09:34.319
<v Speaker 1>Because and then it's interacting with what say okay, it

0:09:34.400 --> 0:09:35.000
<v Speaker 1>was the trigger.

0:09:35.200 --> 0:09:36.480
<v Speaker 4>I would put the pizza.

0:09:36.160 --> 0:09:39.160
<v Speaker 5>Down and say, okay, I'm not I'm gonna not touch it,

0:09:39.240 --> 0:09:40.040
<v Speaker 5>and I felt Okay.

0:09:40.240 --> 0:09:41.800
<v Speaker 4>The reason I'm telling that story is I didn't think

0:09:41.800 --> 0:09:43.200
<v Speaker 4>it was food what it was.

0:09:43.240 --> 0:09:45.000
<v Speaker 1>I thought you were trying to say it was You

0:09:45.040 --> 0:09:46.720
<v Speaker 1>don't think I had a reaction.

0:09:46.480 --> 0:09:50.160
<v Speaker 4>To the pizza. But it's not food poisoning, So.

0:09:50.120 --> 0:09:53.120
<v Speaker 5>You wouldn't call that food poison no, because how was

0:09:53.160 --> 0:09:55.160
<v Speaker 5>it poison It didn't give it didn't have the time

0:09:55.200 --> 0:09:55.800
<v Speaker 5>to poison me.

0:09:55.880 --> 0:09:56.760
<v Speaker 1>So what do you think that is?

0:09:56.880 --> 0:09:58.960
<v Speaker 5>I just had some sort of reaction to the ingredient,

0:09:59.160 --> 0:10:01.160
<v Speaker 5>like allergy, maybe an allergy.

0:10:01.559 --> 0:10:04.400
<v Speaker 3>I'll be honest, Like, I know when you get a cold,

0:10:04.679 --> 0:10:07.240
<v Speaker 3>what makes you sick? Like you're getting like if it's

0:10:07.280 --> 0:10:11.040
<v Speaker 3>like an infection in some way or like a bug.

0:10:11.679 --> 0:10:15.440
<v Speaker 3>I don't know what food poisoning? How you get sick

0:10:15.520 --> 0:10:15.880
<v Speaker 3>from that?

0:10:16.679 --> 0:10:16.920
<v Speaker 4>Is it?

0:10:16.960 --> 0:10:20.280
<v Speaker 3>Like, like what undercooked food that's causing your body to

0:10:20.400 --> 0:10:21.400
<v Speaker 3>react badly?

0:10:21.559 --> 0:10:22.480
<v Speaker 1>That's what I want to find out.

0:10:22.520 --> 0:10:24.360
<v Speaker 5>I think it could be undercooked, right, I think it

0:10:24.360 --> 0:10:26.960
<v Speaker 5>could be prepared in a not a good way, so

0:10:27.080 --> 0:10:28.040
<v Speaker 5>cross contamination.

0:10:28.600 --> 0:10:30.840
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, So I mean, I'll say this. I know I'm

0:10:30.880 --> 0:10:33.760
<v Speaker 1>a skeptic, but like I I'm a big fan of

0:10:33.800 --> 0:10:36.880
<v Speaker 1>Gordon Ramsey. I've watched many of his shows, hundreds of

0:10:36.880 --> 0:10:41.040
<v Speaker 1>hours of his reporting, and watching that, I am like,

0:10:41.080 --> 0:10:43.240
<v Speaker 1>there's some funky stuff going on in kitchens. Oh yeah,

0:10:43.280 --> 0:10:44.600
<v Speaker 1>around the world.

0:10:44.720 --> 0:10:47.640
<v Speaker 4>Frankly, raw meat next to the vegetables next to.

0:10:47.600 --> 0:10:50.640
<v Speaker 1>So, I mean, I understand how this can happen. Yeah,

0:10:50.720 --> 0:10:51.840
<v Speaker 1>if it happens, If.

0:10:52.480 --> 0:10:55.160
<v Speaker 4>It were to happen, I want to believe what you like,

0:10:55.640 --> 0:10:56.200
<v Speaker 4>if I did it.

0:10:57.760 --> 0:11:02.040
<v Speaker 1>Food prep obviously the source farms, Yeah yeah, I've seen

0:11:02.080 --> 0:11:04.199
<v Speaker 1>some videos from these farms. Doesn't seem that clean.

0:11:04.640 --> 0:11:09.959
<v Speaker 3>No, remember when Chipotle had the big was it salmonella outbreak?

0:11:10.360 --> 0:11:13.680
<v Speaker 3>To me, that's food poisoning, Like you consume that and

0:11:13.720 --> 0:11:15.679
<v Speaker 3>then you get sick from it. Yeah, but that's not

0:11:15.760 --> 0:11:18.960
<v Speaker 3>happening as often as people are saying they get food

0:11:18.960 --> 0:11:20.920
<v Speaker 3>poisoned for recalls that stuff.

0:11:21.000 --> 0:11:23.240
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, that's a different thing. That's like a recall that

0:11:23.520 --> 0:11:25.040
<v Speaker 5>someone messed up a whole batch of.

0:11:25.120 --> 0:11:27.080
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, yeah, see that. I think that's where things are complicate,

0:11:27.080 --> 0:11:29.480
<v Speaker 1>because of course we're like boris Head last year. Yes,

0:11:29.880 --> 0:11:33.120
<v Speaker 1>there's these things where there's nationwide recalls and all this stuff,

0:11:33.120 --> 0:11:35.079
<v Speaker 1>and you then it's like, okay, they're tracing this back

0:11:35.080 --> 0:11:37.040
<v Speaker 1>to the source and they know this is it contamination.

0:11:37.080 --> 0:11:38.839
<v Speaker 1>And then there's other stuff where it's like okay, me

0:11:38.840 --> 0:11:41.080
<v Speaker 1>and my buddy go to the socco place, Yeah we

0:11:41.160 --> 0:11:43.839
<v Speaker 1>get the same thing. He's having a problem, and I'm

0:11:43.880 --> 0:11:45.080
<v Speaker 1>not why is that.

0:11:45.000 --> 0:11:46.120
<v Speaker 4>Because not everyone.

0:11:46.320 --> 0:11:48.400
<v Speaker 5>This is also the thing with food poisoning is that

0:11:48.640 --> 0:11:50.360
<v Speaker 5>two people could get the same exact meal and have

0:11:50.360 --> 0:11:51.520
<v Speaker 5>different reactions to it.

0:11:51.720 --> 0:11:55.560
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, clearly. One more question, do you guys wash your chicken?

0:11:57.080 --> 0:11:57.280
<v Speaker 2>No?

0:11:59.120 --> 0:12:01.520
<v Speaker 5>I hate the same as on camera, but I don't

0:12:01.679 --> 0:12:04.760
<v Speaker 5>because I notice is controversial and in the black community.

0:12:05.360 --> 0:12:07.040
<v Speaker 1>Yeah so sometimes.

0:12:07.480 --> 0:12:10.600
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, but you're not supposed to wash your chicken because

0:12:10.640 --> 0:12:12.360
<v Speaker 5>if there is something on it, you're just spreading it,

0:12:12.400 --> 0:12:13.520
<v Speaker 5>you're not actually cleaning it.

0:12:13.720 --> 0:12:16.199
<v Speaker 4>Let's say I used to do it because that's the

0:12:16.240 --> 0:12:17.000
<v Speaker 4>way I was taught.

0:12:17.320 --> 0:12:21.280
<v Speaker 5>So you get vinegar and lemon juice, and you like

0:12:21.360 --> 0:12:23.800
<v Speaker 5>kind of give it like a little bath in the bowl.

0:12:23.880 --> 0:12:27.320
<v Speaker 3>As far as black community misconceptions go, that one's up

0:12:27.320 --> 0:12:30.280
<v Speaker 3>there with we don't need to wear sunscreen. Yes, got

0:12:30.280 --> 0:12:33.040
<v Speaker 3>my ass fried a couple of times by following that advice.

0:12:33.160 --> 0:12:35.480
<v Speaker 5>We don't need to wash the chicken, y'all. I know

0:12:35.760 --> 0:12:38.640
<v Speaker 5>we're gonna get the emails. It is okay, I haven't

0:12:38.679 --> 0:12:41.520
<v Speaker 5>been washing chicken for years. I have not gotten food poisoning.

0:12:41.800 --> 0:12:45.400
<v Speaker 1>So I want to find out what is food poisoning?

0:12:46.160 --> 0:12:47.480
<v Speaker 4>Well, first of all, is it real?

0:12:48.240 --> 0:12:52.240
<v Speaker 1>That's my second question? How common is it? Okay, why

0:12:52.240 --> 0:12:54.679
<v Speaker 1>don't I get it? How can we stay safe?

0:12:54.880 --> 0:12:55.920
<v Speaker 4>What if thing's so void?

0:12:56.240 --> 0:13:11.720
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, and we'll find out after the break. Okay, we're back.

0:13:12.000 --> 0:13:13.800
<v Speaker 4>I'm Manny, I'm Noah Devin.

0:13:13.960 --> 0:13:16.839
<v Speaker 1>So we're talking about food poisoning. I'm skeptical of how

0:13:17.080 --> 0:13:19.040
<v Speaker 1>common it is. I feel like it's used to liberally,

0:13:19.240 --> 0:13:21.800
<v Speaker 1>and I'm wondering why I don't get it personally. So

0:13:21.920 --> 0:13:24.319
<v Speaker 1>I did some research. I had some perfect phone calls

0:13:24.320 --> 0:13:27.640
<v Speaker 1>with some experts in the field. First up, I spoke

0:13:27.679 --> 0:13:28.880
<v Speaker 1>to doctor Ben Chapman.

0:13:29.520 --> 0:13:33.600
<v Speaker 9>I'm a professor and food safety extension specialist and department

0:13:33.640 --> 0:13:36.960
<v Speaker 9>head at North Carolina State University, and the area that

0:13:37.080 --> 0:13:39.920
<v Speaker 9>I focus on is food born illness and food safety,

0:13:40.080 --> 0:13:43.800
<v Speaker 9>especially around restaurants, retail stores, and consumer homes.

0:13:44.400 --> 0:13:47.360
<v Speaker 1>And more importantly arguably, he has his own podcast called

0:13:47.360 --> 0:13:49.120
<v Speaker 1>Food Safety Talk. So this is the guy to.

0:13:49.120 --> 0:13:49.520
<v Speaker 4>Talk to him.

0:13:49.559 --> 0:13:52.320
<v Speaker 1>Hey, yeah, So first up, I asked him to explain

0:13:52.360 --> 0:13:54.000
<v Speaker 1>what food poisoning actually is.

0:13:54.559 --> 0:13:59.439
<v Speaker 9>Food poisoning technically is like one slice where someone eats

0:13:59.440 --> 0:14:02.680
<v Speaker 9>something and there's a toxin in it and you get

0:14:02.760 --> 0:14:06.920
<v Speaker 9>really sick, really quickly, like within six or eight hours.

0:14:07.080 --> 0:14:07.320
<v Speaker 1>You know.

0:14:07.679 --> 0:14:09.600
<v Speaker 9>Back in the seventies, or eighties where a whole bunch

0:14:09.600 --> 0:14:11.520
<v Speaker 9>of people went to a wedding and the next day

0:14:11.559 --> 0:14:14.400
<v Speaker 9>everybody showed up at the emergency room or at their

0:14:14.440 --> 0:14:17.280
<v Speaker 9>primary carreer doctor and then started talking like, oh, what

0:14:17.320 --> 0:14:18.400
<v Speaker 9>did you have the chicken?

0:14:18.480 --> 0:14:19.520
<v Speaker 7>Did you have the fish? Whatever?

0:14:19.840 --> 0:14:23.239
<v Speaker 9>Right, Like, that's kind of the common look at poisoning.

0:14:23.600 --> 0:14:26.440
<v Speaker 9>Food born illness is a little more nuanced. We see

0:14:26.480 --> 0:14:29.280
<v Speaker 9>outbreaks now that might be like as few as three

0:14:29.360 --> 0:14:32.080
<v Speaker 9>or four people, and they might be in four different

0:14:32.120 --> 0:14:35.000
<v Speaker 9>states or in two different countries, And that has I

0:14:35.000 --> 0:14:38.840
<v Speaker 9>would say, broadened the view of food born illness because

0:14:39.120 --> 0:14:43.240
<v Speaker 9>it might be E. Coli or samonella or listeria. Those

0:14:43.280 --> 0:14:46.440
<v Speaker 9>are kind of very common bacteria that we hear about,

0:14:46.720 --> 0:14:51.440
<v Speaker 9>and those often take you know, maybe forty eight or

0:14:51.480 --> 0:14:54.920
<v Speaker 9>seventy two hours after eating something to actually start even

0:14:54.960 --> 0:14:57.200
<v Speaker 9>having symptoms, and it might be another week before someone

0:14:57.240 --> 0:14:59.680
<v Speaker 9>gets sick enough to go to the doctor, depending on

0:14:59.720 --> 0:15:00.920
<v Speaker 9>what the on what the illness is.

0:15:01.520 --> 0:15:03.440
<v Speaker 5>The timing here makes a lot more sense. I know,

0:15:03.480 --> 0:15:05.680
<v Speaker 5>Manny before it's talking about his doctor's telling me what

0:15:05.800 --> 0:15:06.360
<v Speaker 5>ten days.

0:15:07.600 --> 0:15:09.560
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, she was saying, like it could have been anything

0:15:09.560 --> 0:15:11.280
<v Speaker 3>in the past ten days.

0:15:10.800 --> 0:15:13.080
<v Speaker 5>Six to eight hours. That feels like the perfect times.

0:15:13.120 --> 0:15:15.240
<v Speaker 5>That's when I get food poisoning. That's the time table

0:15:15.240 --> 0:15:17.240
<v Speaker 5>to start settling in. Yeah, for dinner, and then the

0:15:17.240 --> 0:15:19.080
<v Speaker 5>middle of the night you're like, what's going on?

0:15:19.160 --> 0:15:22.560
<v Speaker 1>I mean, even lasteria can incubate for seventy days, which

0:15:22.560 --> 0:15:24.680
<v Speaker 1>is really crazy. It's not as easy as just going like,

0:15:24.720 --> 0:15:26.360
<v Speaker 1>what's the last thing you ate, which is obviously what

0:15:26.400 --> 0:15:29.200
<v Speaker 1>most people would do instinctively. We want to be something

0:15:29.240 --> 0:15:31.720
<v Speaker 1>you had literally months ago. Yeah, so I asked, what's

0:15:31.720 --> 0:15:34.880
<v Speaker 1>actually happening in the body during food poisoning. That's him

0:15:34.920 --> 0:15:36.280
<v Speaker 1>to go Osmosa Jones mode.

0:15:36.560 --> 0:15:42.680
<v Speaker 9>Yes, we start with the pathogenic KEY coli, and the

0:15:42.680 --> 0:15:44.360
<v Speaker 9>one that we worry about the.

0:15:44.280 --> 0:15:47.000
<v Speaker 7>Most is E. Coli on seven seven.

0:15:47.120 --> 0:15:50.240
<v Speaker 9>So essentially, what's happening is someone eats food that has

0:15:50.280 --> 0:15:54.480
<v Speaker 9>the pathogen in it. The pathogen passes through the stomach

0:15:54.880 --> 0:15:57.840
<v Speaker 9>and ends up getting to the intestines and that's the

0:15:57.960 --> 0:16:01.560
<v Speaker 9>right place for infection for that put to bacteria, and

0:16:02.280 --> 0:16:04.720
<v Speaker 9>the intestines are a really good environment for E. Coli

0:16:04.800 --> 0:16:08.640
<v Speaker 9>because we have nonpathogenic E. Coli in our body at

0:16:08.680 --> 0:16:12.560
<v Speaker 9>all times. Without having E. Coli in our intestines, we would.

0:16:12.320 --> 0:16:15.200
<v Speaker 7>Not digest food correctly. So we have this like kind.

0:16:15.080 --> 0:16:19.160
<v Speaker 9>Of rogue type of bacteria that's there that lives amongst

0:16:19.200 --> 0:16:22.440
<v Speaker 9>all the other E. Coli can then move in and

0:16:22.440 --> 0:16:25.800
<v Speaker 9>out of cells pretty easy, infects as it grows. A

0:16:25.840 --> 0:16:30.120
<v Speaker 9>byproduct of its growth, it's essentially the waste from the bacteria,

0:16:30.440 --> 0:16:33.920
<v Speaker 9>and so that toxin ends up going to the kidneys

0:16:34.120 --> 0:16:37.800
<v Speaker 9>and then damages kidney cells or ends up in the

0:16:37.840 --> 0:16:41.800
<v Speaker 9>bloodstream in the eyes and can create blood clots because

0:16:42.280 --> 0:16:44.520
<v Speaker 9>the body is trying to attack this toxin, and can

0:16:44.640 --> 0:16:47.680
<v Speaker 9>lead to blindness.

0:16:48.920 --> 0:16:51.640
<v Speaker 1>I asked how common this is, Going back to my question,

0:16:51.680 --> 0:16:53.760
<v Speaker 1>people throw this around all the time. I had food poisoning,

0:16:53.760 --> 0:16:54.880
<v Speaker 1>this that whatever.

0:16:55.200 --> 0:16:58.640
<v Speaker 9>We estimate that they're around forty eight to fifty million

0:16:58.680 --> 0:17:01.240
<v Speaker 9>cases of food borne illness in the US. If you

0:17:01.280 --> 0:17:03.640
<v Speaker 9>went across the population and ask people whether they had

0:17:03.720 --> 0:17:07.880
<v Speaker 9>an irregular bowel movement or if they felt nauseous, how

0:17:07.880 --> 0:17:10.640
<v Speaker 9>many times a year that might happen, you might see

0:17:10.720 --> 0:17:12.560
<v Speaker 9>the population might say three or four times a year.

0:17:12.560 --> 0:17:15.320
<v Speaker 9>I have that, but did not equate it to anything.

0:17:15.400 --> 0:17:17.720
<v Speaker 9>It's just I had the twenty four hour flu. And

0:17:17.880 --> 0:17:19.880
<v Speaker 9>what we don't know is how much of that is food.

0:17:19.640 --> 0:17:20.600
<v Speaker 7>Born and how much is not.

0:17:20.840 --> 0:17:25.080
<v Speaker 9>On average, somewhere in between one and six and one

0:17:25.119 --> 0:17:27.280
<v Speaker 9>in five people are going to get food borne illness

0:17:27.400 --> 0:17:30.440
<v Speaker 9>a year in the US, and the vast majority won't

0:17:30.480 --> 0:17:32.880
<v Speaker 9>equate it to something that they've eaten or maybe never

0:17:32.960 --> 0:17:35.480
<v Speaker 9>will be able to solve that down outbreak. It was

0:17:35.560 --> 0:17:37.520
<v Speaker 9>just something they were exposed to in the food supply.

0:17:38.880 --> 0:17:39.679
<v Speaker 1>It's pretty common.

0:17:39.840 --> 0:17:42.600
<v Speaker 3>This might be the earliest and in the episode's playtime

0:17:42.800 --> 0:17:45.960
<v Speaker 3>where the host has been wrong, I.

0:17:47.680 --> 0:17:49.520
<v Speaker 1>You know, I'm not gonna you know, I can't play

0:17:49.560 --> 0:17:49.960
<v Speaker 1>too long.

0:17:52.200 --> 0:17:55.160
<v Speaker 5>I'll say too like I've had food poisoning, but I've

0:17:55.200 --> 0:17:56.640
<v Speaker 5>never gone to the doctor for it.

0:17:56.680 --> 0:17:58.280
<v Speaker 4>So yeah, I'm unreported.

0:17:58.440 --> 0:18:01.159
<v Speaker 1>I'm assuming these numbers are more than just from the

0:18:01.200 --> 0:18:04.560
<v Speaker 1>hospital surveys and in real studies. But yeah, it's like

0:18:05.000 --> 0:18:07.720
<v Speaker 1>you could easily even if you were surveyed, you still might.

0:18:08.160 --> 0:18:10.520
<v Speaker 1>You wouldn't say necessarily you had food poisoning or food

0:18:10.560 --> 0:18:12.720
<v Speaker 1>born illness. Yeah, you might just be like, yeah, the

0:18:12.800 --> 0:18:13.840
<v Speaker 1>stomach bug or whatever.

0:18:14.080 --> 0:18:14.520
<v Speaker 4>Yeah.

0:18:14.560 --> 0:18:17.320
<v Speaker 1>My biggest question personally, well am I not getting it?

0:18:17.840 --> 0:18:17.959
<v Speaker 4>So?

0:18:18.119 --> 0:18:22.200
<v Speaker 9>Genetics is one how bacteria and viruses kind of attack

0:18:22.240 --> 0:18:24.560
<v Speaker 9>our body. There's lots of different ways. It really could

0:18:24.560 --> 0:18:26.720
<v Speaker 9>come down to the shape of the receptors on a

0:18:26.760 --> 0:18:29.520
<v Speaker 9>specific cell in my body is different from yours, and

0:18:29.520 --> 0:18:32.879
<v Speaker 9>that that virus only wants to unlock that receptor. We

0:18:32.920 --> 0:18:35.520
<v Speaker 9>could be eating the same food in genetics wise, I'm

0:18:35.560 --> 0:18:37.640
<v Speaker 9>more predisposed to it than you are.

0:18:38.040 --> 0:18:38.760
<v Speaker 7>Then there's a.

0:18:38.760 --> 0:18:43.520
<v Speaker 9>Whole other area of how much and what kind of

0:18:44.240 --> 0:18:47.080
<v Speaker 9>bacteria or virus is there. There aren't a lot of

0:18:47.080 --> 0:18:51.280
<v Speaker 9>foods that we eat that I would say are evenly homogeneous,

0:18:51.680 --> 0:18:54.399
<v Speaker 9>the exact same amount of the same thing all over it,

0:18:54.440 --> 0:18:56.600
<v Speaker 9>Like every episode of tastes the same because it's the

0:18:56.720 --> 0:18:58.440
<v Speaker 9>same all through. But we don't eat a lot of

0:18:58.480 --> 0:19:00.000
<v Speaker 9>foods that are like that. Every bite is a little

0:19:00.080 --> 0:19:03.480
<v Speaker 9>bit different. And where bacteria and viruses go is also

0:19:03.560 --> 0:19:06.920
<v Speaker 9>not homogeneous, so they could be concentrated in certain areas.

0:19:07.160 --> 0:19:09.600
<v Speaker 9>The type of food we eat, how much of it,

0:19:09.840 --> 0:19:11.960
<v Speaker 9>that's also a big factor. And then I would say

0:19:11.960 --> 0:19:15.000
<v Speaker 9>the third big factor is whether either of us have

0:19:15.080 --> 0:19:18.280
<v Speaker 9>been exposed to that bacteria or virus before and we

0:19:18.359 --> 0:19:20.160
<v Speaker 9>have acquired immunity.

0:19:20.280 --> 0:19:22.200
<v Speaker 7>And there's some really really.

0:19:21.920 --> 0:19:24.479
<v Speaker 9>Good historical data on this, like people who grew up

0:19:24.520 --> 0:19:28.120
<v Speaker 9>on dairy farms, for instance, are way way, way less

0:19:28.119 --> 0:19:32.919
<v Speaker 9>susceptible to EQUALIE contamination because they lived in an environment

0:19:32.960 --> 0:19:35.080
<v Speaker 9>that where there was equali all the time, and maybe

0:19:35.080 --> 0:19:37.040
<v Speaker 9>they got sick and exposed when they were two or

0:19:37.040 --> 0:19:39.720
<v Speaker 9>three years old and they have immunity to it because

0:19:39.720 --> 0:19:40.000
<v Speaker 9>of that.

0:19:40.600 --> 0:19:43.160
<v Speaker 3>There was a lot in there. But it did answer

0:19:43.160 --> 0:19:45.879
<v Speaker 3>one of my burning questions, which was, you know, if

0:19:46.000 --> 0:19:49.119
<v Speaker 3>Devin and I split a burrito, is it possible that

0:19:49.160 --> 0:19:52.400
<v Speaker 3>he could get food poisoning from it and I couldn't.

0:19:53.200 --> 0:19:56.040
<v Speaker 3>And the answers yes, it seems like, yeah.

0:19:56.000 --> 0:19:58.239
<v Speaker 1>So it could be because you got lucky with your

0:19:58.240 --> 0:20:01.159
<v Speaker 1>bites or simply you're built different. Yeah, which seems to

0:20:01.160 --> 0:20:04.240
<v Speaker 1>be my life. But yeah, yeah, I think so safe

0:20:04.240 --> 0:20:07.800
<v Speaker 1>to say. So. Now, I did ask about when people

0:20:07.840 --> 0:20:11.280
<v Speaker 1>do react immediately, because he said, you know, most of

0:20:11.320 --> 0:20:14.639
<v Speaker 1>these have incubation periods that are at least a few hours,

0:20:14.760 --> 0:20:17.720
<v Speaker 1>if not days or weeks or months. So I asked,

0:20:17.720 --> 0:20:20.159
<v Speaker 1>you know, what is it when people do react immediately

0:20:20.240 --> 0:20:21.760
<v Speaker 1>like you mentioned with your egg plant pizza.

0:20:21.920 --> 0:20:23.960
<v Speaker 4>To be fair, I said, I did not think it was.

0:20:23.560 --> 0:20:26.919
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, let's let me be clear, but you said you

0:20:26.920 --> 0:20:28.840
<v Speaker 1>were eating it and you were like, this feels allthing

0:20:28.960 --> 0:20:30.640
<v Speaker 1>right right before you even had a.

0:20:30.600 --> 0:20:32.840
<v Speaker 4>Reaction, yes, right, and my mouth felt weird.

0:20:33.040 --> 0:20:35.640
<v Speaker 9>Probably the number one misconception is that the last thing

0:20:35.680 --> 0:20:37.399
<v Speaker 9>I ate is what made me sick, right, And you

0:20:37.480 --> 0:20:40.120
<v Speaker 9>kind of hear it all the time in conversations where

0:20:40.119 --> 0:20:41.800
<v Speaker 9>it's like, I'm not going to eat at X restaurant

0:20:41.800 --> 0:20:44.200
<v Speaker 9>again because man, I was terrible. I went home and

0:20:44.240 --> 0:20:46.960
<v Speaker 9>all night I you know, I had diarrhea or vomit

0:20:47.080 --> 0:20:50.440
<v Speaker 9>or whatever. The misconception there is that most food born

0:20:50.440 --> 0:20:55.000
<v Speaker 9>illnesses take at least twenty four hours before like from

0:20:55.040 --> 0:20:58.440
<v Speaker 9>exposure to test symptoms, and so you've got to think

0:20:58.480 --> 0:21:00.280
<v Speaker 9>back to like, well, what I e two days ago,

0:21:00.440 --> 0:21:02.639
<v Speaker 9>and oh, like, should I've eaten a lot of stuff

0:21:02.680 --> 0:21:05.200
<v Speaker 9>over the last two days. That being said, there are

0:21:05.640 --> 0:21:08.760
<v Speaker 9>cases where people get sick very quickly, within thirty minutes.

0:21:09.000 --> 0:21:12.440
<v Speaker 9>It's just not bacterial or viral. It's a chemical contaminant.

0:21:12.760 --> 0:21:17.399
<v Speaker 9>We've seen cases where someone may have inadvertently used like

0:21:17.440 --> 0:21:21.879
<v Speaker 9>a cleaning chemical in food. And the difference there is

0:21:22.040 --> 0:21:25.600
<v Speaker 9>there's often reports of it tasted bad too. Yeah, like

0:21:25.800 --> 0:21:28.800
<v Speaker 9>there was something I detected sensory wise that was off

0:21:28.800 --> 0:21:32.160
<v Speaker 9>with this food and it led to an illness.

0:21:32.280 --> 0:21:35.800
<v Speaker 7>That's like usually the case. So if it was a

0:21:35.880 --> 0:21:38.680
<v Speaker 7>toxin or a chemical. Yeah, it could be very quick.

0:21:38.840 --> 0:21:42.639
<v Speaker 3>So Devin innocent, vindicated, but not for the reason we thought.

0:21:43.240 --> 0:21:43.440
<v Speaker 4>Yeah.

0:21:44.560 --> 0:21:46.680
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, and you know, it's food poisoning in a sense,

0:21:46.800 --> 0:21:48.560
<v Speaker 1>just not your yeah plastic, you.

0:21:48.600 --> 0:21:51.879
<v Speaker 3>Got poisoned from food, but yeah, not necessarily bacterial.

0:21:53.119 --> 0:21:55.040
<v Speaker 1>So now I want to take a step back. We've

0:21:55.119 --> 0:21:59.200
<v Speaker 1>kind of gone deep inside the food poisoning process. Yeah,

0:21:59.240 --> 0:22:00.960
<v Speaker 1>but now I want to see how it spreads on

0:22:01.000 --> 0:22:06.560
<v Speaker 1>the larger spectrum, how these outbreaks occur. So after the break,

0:22:06.720 --> 0:22:09.439
<v Speaker 1>we find out where food borne illness comes from and

0:22:09.520 --> 0:22:11.240
<v Speaker 1>talk to a lawyer who took on a fast food

0:22:11.240 --> 0:22:13.199
<v Speaker 1>giant to change the game as we know it.

0:22:13.359 --> 0:22:13.800
<v Speaker 2>Mmmm.

0:22:27.520 --> 0:22:30.960
<v Speaker 8>Health officials say people infected with the E. Coli bacteria

0:22:31.160 --> 0:22:34.680
<v Speaker 8>maybe unknowingly infecting others. More than one hundred and fifty

0:22:34.680 --> 0:22:37.200
<v Speaker 8>people have become ill after eating tainted hamburger meat a

0:22:37.280 --> 0:22:40.040
<v Speaker 8>Jack in the Box restaurant in Idaho and Washington State.

0:22:40.359 --> 0:22:41.600
<v Speaker 7>One child has died.

0:22:42.760 --> 0:22:46.200
<v Speaker 6>My name is Bill Marler. I'm a food safety attorney

0:22:46.240 --> 0:22:50.000
<v Speaker 6>based on Bambridge Island, Washington, which is a ferry ride

0:22:50.000 --> 0:22:52.200
<v Speaker 6>away from Seattle. By the time the Jack the Marx

0:22:52.320 --> 0:22:57.200
<v Speaker 6>case was over, I knew more about food safety litigation.

0:22:57.440 --> 0:23:00.600
<v Speaker 6>I knew more about E. Coli than you know any

0:23:00.680 --> 0:23:01.880
<v Speaker 6>lawyer in the world.

0:23:02.440 --> 0:23:04.879
<v Speaker 1>To sum it up very briefly, Jack in the Box

0:23:04.920 --> 0:23:07.160
<v Speaker 1>restaurants were linked to an equal lay outbreak in early

0:23:07.160 --> 0:23:10.240
<v Speaker 1>in nineteen ninety three, the largest outbreak ever documented in

0:23:10.280 --> 0:23:11.200
<v Speaker 1>the US at the time.

0:23:12.720 --> 0:23:15.440
<v Speaker 6>Ultimately, there were over six hundred and fifty people sick,

0:23:15.480 --> 0:23:19.880
<v Speaker 6>and four children died. About seventy five suffered acute kidney failure.

0:23:20.200 --> 0:23:23.520
<v Speaker 6>Hundreds and hundreds of people were hospitalized. In many respects,

0:23:23.560 --> 0:23:27.520
<v Speaker 6>you could liken the Seattle area were like a war zone.

0:23:27.560 --> 0:23:30.359
<v Speaker 6>You know, there were more kids in the hospital than

0:23:30.400 --> 0:23:32.040
<v Speaker 6>there were dialysis machines.

0:23:32.840 --> 0:23:35.439
<v Speaker 1>It turns out Jack in the Box wasn't consistently cooking

0:23:35.480 --> 0:23:38.560
<v Speaker 1>their hamburgers to the recommended internal temperature. There was a

0:23:38.560 --> 0:23:41.600
<v Speaker 1>major investigation, and Bill Marler's lawsuit on behalf of the

0:23:41.680 --> 0:23:43.960
<v Speaker 1>victims secured what was at the time the largest ever

0:23:44.000 --> 0:23:47.320
<v Speaker 1>settlement related to food borne illness, over fifty million dollars.

0:23:48.359 --> 0:23:50.720
<v Speaker 1>It also led to a few major food safety outcomes.

0:23:51.200 --> 0:23:54.720
<v Speaker 1>Freshly inaugurated President Bill Clinton ushered in new regulations requiring

0:23:54.720 --> 0:23:57.760
<v Speaker 1>the USDA to test samples of RAGROUNB for equal one

0:23:57.760 --> 0:23:59.840
<v Speaker 1>to five to seven, which was now declared in adults.

0:24:00.320 --> 0:24:02.240
<v Speaker 1>That means if it's found in the product, it cannot

0:24:02.280 --> 0:24:06.280
<v Speaker 1>be sold. The FDA increased recommended internal temperatures for hamburgers

0:24:06.320 --> 0:24:10.600
<v Speaker 1>from one hundred and fifty five degrees fahrenheit and one

0:24:10.640 --> 0:24:13.760
<v Speaker 1>to five to seven. Infection became a reportable disease, meaning

0:24:13.800 --> 0:24:16.200
<v Speaker 1>all cases must be reported to the government to then

0:24:16.240 --> 0:24:18.680
<v Speaker 1>be monitored for a larger outbreak. Due to the work

0:24:18.680 --> 0:24:21.159
<v Speaker 1>of Bill Marler and others, E Coli outbreaks connected to

0:24:21.160 --> 0:24:24.720
<v Speaker 1>beef in the US have effectively gone down to zero.

0:24:29.760 --> 0:24:32.560
<v Speaker 1>That's in a nutshell Bill's story and how he got

0:24:32.600 --> 0:24:34.760
<v Speaker 1>into it, and now he's just a food safety guy.

0:24:35.280 --> 0:24:37.480
<v Speaker 1>So I asked, from a legal standpoint, how Bill goes

0:24:37.480 --> 0:24:39.920
<v Speaker 1>about tracing an outbreak, And things have changed a lot

0:24:39.960 --> 0:24:42.639
<v Speaker 1>since the nineties, just the technology and science behind it.

0:24:42.880 --> 0:24:45.879
<v Speaker 6>So I spend a lot of my time doing the

0:24:45.920 --> 0:24:50.120
<v Speaker 6>epidemiology of figuring out an outbreak. I think I may

0:24:50.160 --> 0:24:53.960
<v Speaker 6>be the only lawyer in the world who has an epidemiologist,

0:24:53.960 --> 0:24:56.480
<v Speaker 6>and I actually have three on my staff. I kind

0:24:56.480 --> 0:25:00.359
<v Speaker 6>of look at ourselves as a health department with a

0:25:00.400 --> 0:25:04.320
<v Speaker 6>prosecuting attorney attached to it. We figure out can we

0:25:04.320 --> 0:25:07.720
<v Speaker 6>connect up this person, and then can we connect it

0:25:07.840 --> 0:25:10.560
<v Speaker 6>up to a product, And then my job is to

0:25:10.840 --> 0:25:13.840
<v Speaker 6>go after that company and make sure that they do

0:25:13.960 --> 0:25:21.800
<v Speaker 6>right by my client and don't poison people again. I

0:25:21.840 --> 0:25:25.040
<v Speaker 6>got called by a father of a child who had

0:25:25.040 --> 0:25:28.520
<v Speaker 6>a very severe about of equali. The kid's kidney function

0:25:28.600 --> 0:25:31.760
<v Speaker 6>he's four years old, is about forty percent right now,

0:25:31.800 --> 0:25:34.840
<v Speaker 6>so the likelihood of him losing his kidneys in his

0:25:34.960 --> 0:25:39.200
<v Speaker 6>teens is pretty high. He had whole genome sequencing done,

0:25:39.960 --> 0:25:44.040
<v Speaker 6>but he was not a match to anything. And the

0:25:44.080 --> 0:25:46.560
<v Speaker 6>public has access to this database where if you know

0:25:47.480 --> 0:25:52.040
<v Speaker 6>the genetic fingerprint number of that particular person, you can

0:25:52.080 --> 0:25:55.560
<v Speaker 6>plug it into a database and it'll populate a whole

0:25:55.600 --> 0:25:58.320
<v Speaker 6>genome sequence tree, so you can look to see whether

0:25:58.400 --> 0:26:01.000
<v Speaker 6>or not they're linked to anything. And here the kid

0:26:01.119 --> 0:26:05.119
<v Speaker 6>no outbreak. So I was like, well, that's just, you know, sucks,

0:26:05.480 --> 0:26:07.760
<v Speaker 6>and I can't figure this out. So I was talking

0:26:07.800 --> 0:26:10.879
<v Speaker 6>to the family and figuring out, like what other possible

0:26:11.359 --> 0:26:15.199
<v Speaker 6>potential sources there were, And I asked him if they

0:26:15.200 --> 0:26:18.040
<v Speaker 6>had any animals and he says, we had a dog,

0:26:18.800 --> 0:26:20.720
<v Speaker 6>and I'm like, well, what did you feed the dog?

0:26:21.160 --> 0:26:24.879
<v Speaker 6>And he said, well, we fed him Darwin raw dog food,

0:26:25.040 --> 0:26:28.400
<v Speaker 6>and I'm like, h Darwin raw dog food has had

0:26:28.440 --> 0:26:32.280
<v Speaker 6>problems in the past with bacterial contamination. So we had

0:26:32.280 --> 0:26:36.440
<v Speaker 6>it tested by an FDA certified lab and it came

0:26:36.480 --> 0:26:39.919
<v Speaker 6>back positive for E. Coli and two forms of salmonella.

0:26:40.160 --> 0:26:43.840
<v Speaker 6>E coli was a genetic match to the kid, and

0:26:43.960 --> 0:26:46.800
<v Speaker 6>that I turned that material over both to the company

0:26:46.840 --> 0:26:50.560
<v Speaker 6>and to the FDA, and the FDA did an investigation

0:26:51.280 --> 0:26:54.199
<v Speaker 6>concluded the same thing. I concluded that the cause of

0:26:54.240 --> 0:26:57.159
<v Speaker 6>the outbreak, or cause of this kid's illness was the

0:26:57.200 --> 0:26:59.840
<v Speaker 6>dog food. And you know it's likely that dog ate

0:26:59.840 --> 0:27:03.040
<v Speaker 6>the food, the dog licked the kid. You know, that

0:27:03.119 --> 0:27:05.040
<v Speaker 6>kind of stuff happened. So a lot of times I

0:27:05.119 --> 0:27:08.040
<v Speaker 6>figure these outbreaks out on my own.

0:27:13.119 --> 0:27:16.160
<v Speaker 1>We heard how the cole I and ground beef has

0:27:16.200 --> 0:27:18.840
<v Speaker 1>basically become a non issue now after the Jack in

0:27:18.880 --> 0:27:21.400
<v Speaker 1>the Box lawsuit. But there's a lot of frustration now

0:27:21.440 --> 0:27:23.879
<v Speaker 1>we haven't had the same level of action on other issues,

0:27:23.920 --> 0:27:26.040
<v Speaker 1>like salmonella in chicken, which is a common one you

0:27:26.040 --> 0:27:28.639
<v Speaker 1>hear about. Yeah, so here's Bill talking about that.

0:27:29.400 --> 0:27:32.280
<v Speaker 6>I've repeatedly been beating my head against the wall for

0:27:32.359 --> 0:27:34.840
<v Speaker 6>twenty years to try to get some movement there, but

0:27:34.920 --> 0:27:40.639
<v Speaker 6>you know, it's completely completely legal to sell salmonil attained chicken.

0:27:40.720 --> 0:27:44.000
<v Speaker 6>It's the rationale. Well, the housewives or the house husbands

0:27:44.000 --> 0:27:47.840
<v Speaker 6>nowadays are responsible for handling the product, like you know,

0:27:47.880 --> 0:27:51.320
<v Speaker 6>it's a nuclear weapon. Over half of salmonella cases in

0:27:51.359 --> 0:27:54.359
<v Speaker 6>the United States are caused by chicken. That's one point

0:27:54.400 --> 0:27:58.679
<v Speaker 6>three million Americans every are sickened by salmonilla.

0:27:58.720 --> 0:27:59.280
<v Speaker 7>It's crazy.

0:27:59.400 --> 0:28:01.720
<v Speaker 1>How does the U stock up against Europe or elsewhere

0:28:01.760 --> 0:28:02.240
<v Speaker 1>in the world.

0:28:02.600 --> 0:28:06.240
<v Speaker 6>It's not like Europe has not had some significant outbreaks,

0:28:06.320 --> 0:28:09.480
<v Speaker 6>but you know, for salmonella, they just said, we just

0:28:09.520 --> 0:28:13.520
<v Speaker 6>won't have salmonella or camflo bacter, which is generally also

0:28:13.520 --> 0:28:16.560
<v Speaker 6>found with chicken. What they do in Europe is if

0:28:16.600 --> 0:28:21.560
<v Speaker 6>there's a flock of birds that have salmonella, they'll eradicate

0:28:21.600 --> 0:28:23.800
<v Speaker 6>that flock. It's not like we don't do that here.

0:28:24.200 --> 0:28:26.439
<v Speaker 6>We eradicate flocks all the time, but it's usually for

0:28:26.560 --> 0:28:30.879
<v Speaker 6>bird flu ye. But in you know, EU, UK they

0:28:30.920 --> 0:28:35.000
<v Speaker 6>eradicate flocks. They also vaccinate animals. We think that that's

0:28:35.560 --> 0:28:39.120
<v Speaker 6>too expensive. So what happens is you have to assume

0:28:39.160 --> 0:28:42.240
<v Speaker 6>that every chicken you buy in a grocery store is

0:28:42.280 --> 0:28:46.800
<v Speaker 6>contaminated with salmonella and and or cam flobactor or both,

0:28:47.200 --> 0:28:49.400
<v Speaker 6>and you're likely right, but you know, we could do

0:28:49.520 --> 0:28:52.760
<v Speaker 6>way more. We finally got a little piece of legislation

0:28:53.400 --> 0:28:57.280
<v Speaker 6>banning salmonella in certain chicken products that went into effect

0:28:57.520 --> 0:29:01.600
<v Speaker 6>in the Biden administration, and then the Trump administration killed it.

0:29:01.800 --> 0:29:05.280
<v Speaker 6>I remember years ago when the ecoli was listed as

0:29:05.280 --> 0:29:08.080
<v Speaker 6>adulter in the industry was like, Oh my god, Hamburger's

0:29:08.120 --> 0:29:10.040
<v Speaker 6>going to cost way too much.

0:29:10.080 --> 0:29:12.360
<v Speaker 4>It's like the world's going to fall. Oh my god,

0:29:12.480 --> 0:29:13.600
<v Speaker 4>it's terrible. It's terrible.

0:29:14.080 --> 0:29:16.440
<v Speaker 6>You know, it's consumers, they should deal with it. And

0:29:16.960 --> 0:29:21.600
<v Speaker 6>you know, it all worked out. There are tens of thousands,

0:29:22.000 --> 0:29:25.560
<v Speaker 6>maybe hundreds of thousands, and probably now by now millions

0:29:25.560 --> 0:29:30.600
<v Speaker 6>of people who did not get sick because of ecola

0:29:30.640 --> 0:29:35.040
<v Speaker 6>as an adulterate and increased cook temperatures on red meat.

0:29:35.280 --> 0:29:37.800
<v Speaker 6>It's crazy that you wouldn't sit that, sit back and

0:29:37.840 --> 0:29:40.480
<v Speaker 6>look at it and go, huh, maybe we should do

0:29:40.520 --> 0:29:44.120
<v Speaker 6>that too. But there's just so much inertia on the

0:29:44.160 --> 0:29:47.280
<v Speaker 6>part of industry, so much inertia on the part of

0:29:47.800 --> 0:29:54.480
<v Speaker 6>government to actually solve these problems. And I don't know,

0:29:54.800 --> 0:29:57.640
<v Speaker 6>I don't know there's a level of frustration that I

0:29:57.680 --> 0:30:03.680
<v Speaker 6>still have that I just uh, yeah, it's I yeah,

0:30:03.800 --> 0:30:07.120
<v Speaker 6>it's it's really sometimes very frustrating.

0:30:07.600 --> 0:30:10.400
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, it's such an uphill battle, I think when you're

0:30:10.400 --> 0:30:13.480
<v Speaker 3>trying to convince like a population to do something, but

0:30:13.640 --> 0:30:17.360
<v Speaker 3>your proof is that something won't happen if you do

0:30:17.440 --> 0:30:20.840
<v Speaker 3>it right, like he will, like they want to pass

0:30:20.880 --> 0:30:23.280
<v Speaker 3>better protections on this, on this kind of stuff, but

0:30:23.360 --> 0:30:25.360
<v Speaker 3>like you know, the proof would be that you didn't

0:30:25.360 --> 0:30:27.160
<v Speaker 3>get sick, and then you're just someone could be like, well,

0:30:27.160 --> 0:30:29.160
<v Speaker 3>I wasn't gonna get sick anyway. We're just lucky that

0:30:29.520 --> 0:30:32.920
<v Speaker 3>people don't really want raw or like rare chick the

0:30:32.920 --> 0:30:33.440
<v Speaker 3>way we do.

0:30:33.440 --> 0:30:34.360
<v Speaker 1>With a steak or something.

0:30:35.400 --> 0:30:37.240
<v Speaker 3>If someone goes to a restaurant at a steak or

0:30:37.280 --> 0:30:40.720
<v Speaker 3>a burger, like I know Noah enjoys a medium rare

0:30:41.160 --> 0:30:41.680
<v Speaker 3>even rare.

0:30:42.040 --> 0:30:48.760
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, but the meat it's fine, hamburg the ground beach

0:30:48.840 --> 0:30:50.440
<v Speaker 1>is not really an issue so much. And then I

0:30:50.720 --> 0:30:52.880
<v Speaker 1>do ask kind of rapid fire to kind of go

0:30:52.920 --> 0:30:54.520
<v Speaker 1>through a bunch of these things because I was like,

0:30:55.200 --> 0:30:57.760
<v Speaker 1>I was scared to ask these guys if it's okay

0:30:57.800 --> 0:31:03.280
<v Speaker 1>for me to order our rare stick. We're gonna take

0:31:03.320 --> 0:31:06.120
<v Speaker 1>a quick break, and when we're back, we conclude our

0:31:06.400 --> 0:31:19.840
<v Speaker 1>episode with some rapid fire food safety questions. So I

0:31:19.880 --> 0:31:22.880
<v Speaker 1>went back to Ben Chapman, our food safety expert from

0:31:23.280 --> 0:31:25.600
<v Speaker 1>North Carolina State, to kind of run through a list

0:31:25.640 --> 0:31:29.000
<v Speaker 1>of problematic foods to see where he stands.

0:31:33.120 --> 0:31:33.600
<v Speaker 4>Sushi.

0:31:33.880 --> 0:31:36.560
<v Speaker 9>How big of a risk is that restaurants are required

0:31:36.680 --> 0:31:41.440
<v Speaker 9>to do parasite destruction in raw fish, specifically if it's

0:31:41.480 --> 0:31:43.960
<v Speaker 9>gonna be served raw, so that means that it's got

0:31:44.000 --> 0:31:48.120
<v Speaker 9>to be frozen usually or some other mechanism before consumption,

0:31:48.720 --> 0:31:51.600
<v Speaker 9>and parasites are the issue with sushi.

0:31:52.720 --> 0:31:56.160
<v Speaker 1>Next, like beef tartar or even just a very rare

0:31:56.640 --> 0:31:57.479
<v Speaker 1>steak or burger.

0:31:58.160 --> 0:32:01.640
<v Speaker 9>So beef tartar is just ground up meat, I would

0:32:01.640 --> 0:32:04.120
<v Speaker 9>say that's one of the most riskiest things you can eat,

0:32:04.360 --> 0:32:07.360
<v Speaker 9>and especially tartar, which if it was ground beef that

0:32:07.440 --> 0:32:10.760
<v Speaker 9>was sold in the US, that has a testing regime

0:32:10.840 --> 0:32:14.200
<v Speaker 9>associated with it to make sure before it's released that

0:32:14.440 --> 0:32:17.280
<v Speaker 9>there aren't pathogens in it. Tartar doesn't go through that.

0:32:17.320 --> 0:32:19.280
<v Speaker 9>You're starting with like a whole muscle and you're cutting

0:32:19.280 --> 0:32:22.200
<v Speaker 9>it up or grinding it and making it. Moving to

0:32:22.280 --> 0:32:24.400
<v Speaker 9>the next one that you mentioned, was like a rare steak.

0:32:24.440 --> 0:32:27.560
<v Speaker 9>I eat rare steak on a weekly basis. The pathogens

0:32:27.600 --> 0:32:31.040
<v Speaker 9>would be on the outside, so searing the muscle on

0:32:31.080 --> 0:32:34.960
<v Speaker 9>the inside, it's essentially sterile, and then undercooked or rare

0:32:34.960 --> 0:32:37.840
<v Speaker 9>hamburger is like somewhere in the middle where there's a

0:32:37.880 --> 0:32:40.600
<v Speaker 9>little bit of protection. When it comes to ground beef,

0:32:40.840 --> 0:32:44.560
<v Speaker 9>it's getting cooked a little bit, but who knows how much.

0:32:44.840 --> 0:32:48.360
<v Speaker 9>And so I'm a fan of temperature specifically, so I'm

0:32:48.400 --> 0:32:50.760
<v Speaker 9>looking for like one hundred and fifty five degrees fahrenheit.

0:32:50.880 --> 0:32:53.520
<v Speaker 9>If it's a steak, I'm probably cooking my steak to

0:32:53.560 --> 0:32:56.120
<v Speaker 9>like one hundred and twenty degrees. That very outside of

0:32:56.160 --> 0:32:58.800
<v Speaker 9>it is probably getting into four hundred and killing everything, Okay,

0:32:58.920 --> 0:33:01.880
<v Speaker 9>And then tartar is something that I think is really risky.

0:33:04.240 --> 0:33:06.320
<v Speaker 1>Next, I asked about oysters, because you know, once in

0:33:06.320 --> 0:33:08.320
<v Speaker 1>a while I see a story and it's like oysters

0:33:08.360 --> 0:33:11.240
<v Speaker 1>the most dangerous thing you can eat. Yeah, people just died. Yeah,

0:33:11.320 --> 0:33:13.920
<v Speaker 1>And I'm like, okay, well, I see oysters all the

0:33:13.960 --> 0:33:16.440
<v Speaker 1>time from places that I don't think frankly should be

0:33:16.480 --> 0:33:19.440
<v Speaker 1>serving oysters. That's all year round, all this stuff. So

0:33:19.480 --> 0:33:20.800
<v Speaker 1>I was like, all right, I need I need this,

0:33:20.880 --> 0:33:21.920
<v Speaker 1>gotta tell me what's up.

0:33:22.280 --> 0:33:25.000
<v Speaker 9>Raw oysters are among the riskiest things that we have.

0:33:25.600 --> 0:33:27.880
<v Speaker 9>Many of the cases that we see when it comes

0:33:27.960 --> 0:33:32.240
<v Speaker 9>to oyster illnesses or things like the pathogens called vibrio.

0:33:33.000 --> 0:33:37.800
<v Speaker 9>Often people are predisposed to bibrial illnesses if they are aging,

0:33:38.160 --> 0:33:41.480
<v Speaker 9>if they are heavy drinkers, and they have liver issues,

0:33:42.040 --> 0:33:44.840
<v Speaker 9>and weirdly that is a factor for people getting sick

0:33:44.880 --> 0:33:47.920
<v Speaker 9>from raw oysters. Is someone who consumes a lot of

0:33:47.920 --> 0:33:51.880
<v Speaker 9>alcohol and then is exposing themselves to these pathogens.

0:33:52.000 --> 0:33:53.960
<v Speaker 4>So I have to style getting oysters, is what he's

0:33:53.960 --> 0:33:54.360
<v Speaker 4>telling me.

0:33:56.160 --> 0:33:59.400
<v Speaker 1>I think overall, you're okay, especially if you're not predisposed

0:33:59.480 --> 0:34:02.840
<v Speaker 1>per se on that aging And yeah, and if you're

0:34:03.520 --> 0:34:05.720
<v Speaker 1>I guess maybe the advice would be trying to find

0:34:06.000 --> 0:34:08.200
<v Speaker 1>oysters that are actually local and not shipped across the

0:34:08.239 --> 0:34:11.239
<v Speaker 1>country or something like that, so hopefully they're fresh. So yeah,

0:34:11.239 --> 0:34:13.640
<v Speaker 1>I wanted to ask about leftover rice. There's another one

0:34:13.680 --> 0:34:15.800
<v Speaker 1>where I was like, this one's just is crazy because

0:34:16.560 --> 0:34:20.399
<v Speaker 1>more than anything oysters. Of course, I believe people get

0:34:20.440 --> 0:34:23.120
<v Speaker 1>sick from this, but yeah, you see them all the time,

0:34:23.160 --> 0:34:25.600
<v Speaker 1>but it's not like an everyday occurrence. Left the rice

0:34:25.600 --> 0:34:26.640
<v Speaker 1>people are eating all the time.

0:34:26.719 --> 0:34:28.880
<v Speaker 4>I haere yesterday.

0:34:29.080 --> 0:34:31.759
<v Speaker 9>Yeah, yeah, I think it's a really big social media issue.

0:34:31.800 --> 0:34:32.000
<v Speaker 4>Yeah.

0:34:32.040 --> 0:34:35.880
<v Speaker 9>The entire leftover rice controversy or issues come from an

0:34:35.920 --> 0:34:40.520
<v Speaker 9>actual true story where someone got sick from eating leftover rice.

0:34:40.760 --> 0:34:44.200
<v Speaker 9>This the illness was associated with something called basill is serious.

0:34:44.280 --> 0:34:48.000
<v Speaker 9>The bacteria survives as a spore with dry rice, and

0:34:48.080 --> 0:34:49.800
<v Speaker 9>so most of our rice has basilli.

0:34:49.800 --> 0:34:50.719
<v Speaker 7>Is serious in it.

0:34:51.200 --> 0:34:56.120
<v Speaker 9>The spore wakes up during cooking, which is counterintuitive, right.

0:34:56.200 --> 0:34:59.400
<v Speaker 9>It has to be heat treated to essentially shock it awake.

0:35:00.080 --> 0:35:06.239
<v Speaker 9>And then if rice is stored incorrectly after cooking, it

0:35:06.280 --> 0:35:08.560
<v Speaker 9>can grow. And in fact, that is really the issue

0:35:08.560 --> 0:35:11.040
<v Speaker 9>with leftover rice. It has nothing to do with leftovers.

0:35:11.520 --> 0:35:13.600
<v Speaker 9>And and in fact, the case that drew this was

0:35:13.760 --> 0:35:18.000
<v Speaker 9>someone left rice on their countertop for two days after

0:35:18.480 --> 0:35:23.279
<v Speaker 9>making it and that's like not a good idea for

0:35:23.320 --> 0:35:25.520
<v Speaker 9>any food, and then took it and put it in

0:35:25.520 --> 0:35:27.640
<v Speaker 9>the refrigerator and a couple of days later ate it,

0:35:28.040 --> 0:35:29.279
<v Speaker 9>and the story became.

0:35:29.000 --> 0:35:30.040
<v Speaker 7>Well, they ate leftover rice.

0:35:30.120 --> 0:35:34.000
<v Speaker 9>It's like true, they did, but the leftover wasn't the

0:35:34.000 --> 0:35:36.880
<v Speaker 9>factor that it was post cooking leaving it on the countertop.

0:35:37.000 --> 0:35:39.960
<v Speaker 7>Yes, And so essentially yeah.

0:35:39.920 --> 0:35:42.960
<v Speaker 9>In that you're you provided the perfect environment for the

0:35:43.000 --> 0:35:45.760
<v Speaker 9>bacterial to grow. I eat a lot of leftover rice.

0:35:46.080 --> 0:35:48.960
<v Speaker 9>I will eat it on a weekly basis. I cook

0:35:49.080 --> 0:35:51.319
<v Speaker 9>rice and then I put it in the refrigerator right away,

0:35:51.440 --> 0:35:54.719
<v Speaker 9>and then I might eat leftover rice for a week afterwards.

0:35:55.000 --> 0:35:57.400
<v Speaker 9>So it's not a time factor once it's in my refrigerator.

0:35:57.440 --> 0:35:59.759
<v Speaker 9>It's really about how quickly I get it in the

0:36:00.200 --> 0:36:01.200
<v Speaker 9>drinder after I make it.

0:36:01.239 --> 0:36:03.920
<v Speaker 1>And the last one was about washing chicken.

0:36:04.440 --> 0:36:04.880
<v Speaker 4>Mmmmm.

0:36:05.239 --> 0:36:08.200
<v Speaker 1>So here's what Ben had to say about washing chicken.

0:36:10.560 --> 0:36:12.880
<v Speaker 7>We did a lot of research on this issue.

0:36:12.960 --> 0:36:16.120
<v Speaker 9>We actually brought people from the community in to prepare

0:36:16.200 --> 0:36:19.880
<v Speaker 9>chicken who identified themselves as someone who washes chicken, so

0:36:19.920 --> 0:36:22.960
<v Speaker 9>we better understand what happens during that process. And what

0:36:23.000 --> 0:36:26.239
<v Speaker 9>we've learned is why people wash chicken is because they

0:36:26.239 --> 0:36:30.600
<v Speaker 9>think that they're removing something. Some people think they're removing bacteria.

0:36:30.880 --> 0:36:34.319
<v Speaker 9>Some people think they're removing slime. Yeah, all of those

0:36:34.400 --> 0:36:36.960
<v Speaker 9>things are taken care of during the cooking process, and

0:36:37.000 --> 0:36:40.719
<v Speaker 9>so washing can only increase risk. When you're washing it,

0:36:40.760 --> 0:36:44.359
<v Speaker 9>you're taking the bacteria that is on the outside and

0:36:44.400 --> 0:36:47.799
<v Speaker 9>you are depositing it somewhere in your kitchen, whether it's

0:36:47.800 --> 0:36:51.160
<v Speaker 9>in your sink basin or outside of the sink. And

0:36:51.200 --> 0:36:53.600
<v Speaker 9>so the work that we did demonstrated that people who

0:36:53.640 --> 0:36:55.239
<v Speaker 9>do that can often.

0:36:55.000 --> 0:36:57.239
<v Speaker 7>Contaminate their sink, contaminate.

0:36:56.680 --> 0:36:59.520
<v Speaker 9>Other food that they're making along the same time, and

0:36:59.719 --> 0:37:03.840
<v Speaker 9>other places within their kitchen like spice bottles. So the

0:37:04.280 --> 0:37:07.759
<v Speaker 9>kind of message that's out there as don't wash your chicken,

0:37:07.760 --> 0:37:10.000
<v Speaker 9>which is really not a great message because people are like, well,

0:37:10.120 --> 0:37:12.359
<v Speaker 9>I wash my chicken, so why don't you tell me

0:37:12.480 --> 0:37:13.360
<v Speaker 9>how to do it safely?

0:37:13.440 --> 0:37:13.640
<v Speaker 4>Yeah?

0:37:13.680 --> 0:37:15.480
<v Speaker 9>Yeah, And so it's it's more about like, if this

0:37:15.560 --> 0:37:17.840
<v Speaker 9>is something that you're gonna do, making sure that you

0:37:18.000 --> 0:37:20.600
<v Speaker 9>clean and sanitize your sink basin, which is the most

0:37:20.680 --> 0:37:23.239
<v Speaker 9>likely place to get contaminated because we do a lot

0:37:23.239 --> 0:37:26.280
<v Speaker 9>of other food related things in the sink, like rints

0:37:26.440 --> 0:37:29.920
<v Speaker 9>less for in a calendar, for instance, and so bacteria

0:37:29.960 --> 0:37:33.640
<v Speaker 9>that's in the basin can bounce up into that calendar,

0:37:33.719 --> 0:37:41.919
<v Speaker 9>which is what we saw in our study.

0:37:42.719 --> 0:37:46.400
<v Speaker 1>Hopefully this helps. Before you get into our takeaways, I

0:37:46.440 --> 0:37:48.680
<v Speaker 1>do want to recommend a documentary that both Ben and

0:37:48.760 --> 0:37:49.560
<v Speaker 1>Bill are in.

0:37:49.880 --> 0:37:50.239
<v Speaker 7>Oh Wow.

0:37:50.520 --> 0:37:53.239
<v Speaker 1>It's on Netflix, and it's called Poisoned. The Dirty Truth

0:37:53.239 --> 0:37:55.240
<v Speaker 1>about Your Food this is my first step in my research,

0:37:55.320 --> 0:37:58.440
<v Speaker 1>and then I grabbed these guys from the documentary. It's

0:37:58.520 --> 0:38:01.480
<v Speaker 1>directed by Stephanie Sucked and it's based on a book

0:38:01.480 --> 0:38:03.920
<v Speaker 1>by the journalist Jeff Benedict. So I will say watching this,

0:38:03.960 --> 0:38:06.239
<v Speaker 1>it took me about three minutes of hearing Bill talk

0:38:06.280 --> 0:38:08.600
<v Speaker 1>before I was convinced I was pretty wrong about food

0:38:08.600 --> 0:38:11.480
<v Speaker 1>poison because it opens and you know, talking about all

0:38:11.480 --> 0:38:14.600
<v Speaker 1>these horrible stories. I was like, yeah, okay, this exists.

0:38:14.840 --> 0:38:18.400
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, fair enough. Hey, we love someone who knows when

0:38:18.440 --> 0:38:19.600
<v Speaker 3>they're wrong and they can admit it.

0:38:19.840 --> 0:38:22.080
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, it's a beautiful thing about this podcast.

0:38:22.120 --> 0:38:23.600
<v Speaker 1>And also I'm not embarrassed. Yeah.

0:38:23.600 --> 0:38:25.480
<v Speaker 3>You know at the end of these episodes, when we

0:38:25.560 --> 0:38:28.600
<v Speaker 3>learn like this large amount of information, I always wonder

0:38:28.640 --> 0:38:32.200
<v Speaker 3>how much it's gonna change my life personally, And I

0:38:32.280 --> 0:38:34.000
<v Speaker 3>think this is the first time where like, actually, yeah,

0:38:34.040 --> 0:38:37.600
<v Speaker 3>I probably will. I've never really checked the temperature of

0:38:37.600 --> 0:38:38.960
<v Speaker 3>the chicken. I just kind of look at it and

0:38:39.000 --> 0:38:41.279
<v Speaker 3>it's like kind of looks done, and you know, I

0:38:41.360 --> 0:38:43.719
<v Speaker 3>might start I do have a thermometer, I might start

0:38:43.719 --> 0:38:47.560
<v Speaker 3>poking it. Yeah. And then on the opposite side of this,

0:38:47.719 --> 0:38:51.360
<v Speaker 3>like I do feel like a little I feel like

0:38:51.360 --> 0:38:55.799
<v Speaker 3>it's I feel safer getting rarer meats. Yeah, when I

0:38:55.840 --> 0:38:57.680
<v Speaker 3>go to a restaurant, so I might try something that.

0:38:57.719 --> 0:39:00.600
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, it's more just understanding what the actual risks you

0:39:00.640 --> 0:39:04.279
<v Speaker 1>should be worried about our overall. I feel like, yeah,

0:39:04.400 --> 0:39:06.920
<v Speaker 1>usually we talked to an expert and it's and they

0:39:07.200 --> 0:39:09.320
<v Speaker 1>tell us what's wrong with something, and I was like,

0:39:09.360 --> 0:39:11.160
<v Speaker 1>all right, great, thanks, I'm not gonna change let me

0:39:11.200 --> 0:39:13.799
<v Speaker 1>go back, let me go back my life. But this

0:39:13.840 --> 0:39:15.040
<v Speaker 1>one seems pretty important.

0:39:15.400 --> 0:39:16.720
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, this is helpful.

0:39:16.840 --> 0:39:19.600
<v Speaker 5>I would say I was, you know, as someone a

0:39:19.719 --> 0:39:26.600
<v Speaker 5>food poisoning victim survivor survivor. Yes, sir, I thought your

0:39:26.640 --> 0:39:32.279
<v Speaker 5>premise was ridiculous. I did think people overestimated. So the

0:39:32.320 --> 0:39:35.799
<v Speaker 5>fact that it really isn't you know, like there's a

0:39:35.840 --> 0:39:36.720
<v Speaker 5>lot of food poisoning.

0:39:36.840 --> 0:39:37.880
<v Speaker 1>Oh yeah yeah.

0:39:38.360 --> 0:39:40.960
<v Speaker 5>So I will say I'm going to apologize to some

0:39:40.960 --> 0:39:43.520
<v Speaker 5>people out there who I said maybe.

0:39:43.400 --> 0:39:46.480
<v Speaker 1>Faking anyway, right to your Congress people, I guess about salmonella.

0:39:46.960 --> 0:39:49.560
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, let's do that's something. What are we doing?

0:39:49.719 --> 0:39:51.000
<v Speaker 1>I mean, it's crazy.

0:39:51.120 --> 0:39:53.480
<v Speaker 3>Feels similar to the Headlights episode where it's like, look

0:39:53.480 --> 0:39:55.600
<v Speaker 3>what they're doing over there makes a lot of sense.

0:39:55.800 --> 0:40:00.120
<v Speaker 1>Just they just want demonstrable differences and not and like

0:40:00.360 --> 0:40:03.040
<v Speaker 1>Bill says, where it's like everyone freaked out how expensive

0:40:03.040 --> 0:40:06.000
<v Speaker 1>meat would be. It adjusts. It's not you know, once

0:40:06.000 --> 0:40:08.080
<v Speaker 1>it's built into the thing. It's just that's what it is.

0:40:08.120 --> 0:40:10.480
<v Speaker 1>I mean, over all these the factory farms and stuff.

0:40:11.520 --> 0:40:15.840
<v Speaker 1>It makes me want to go, you know, avoid that more. Yeah, yeah,

0:40:16.360 --> 0:40:19.120
<v Speaker 1>you know, who knows. Yeah, it's it seems pretty bad

0:40:19.120 --> 0:40:21.200
<v Speaker 1>out there. Of course, the ownus just falls on us

0:40:21.239 --> 0:40:25.840
<v Speaker 1>as consumers and cookers ourselves.

0:40:24.680 --> 0:40:25.160
<v Speaker 4>To do it.

0:40:25.280 --> 0:40:27.920
<v Speaker 1>Like so many other things issue too.

0:40:27.920 --> 0:40:29.920
<v Speaker 4>If no one cares until they're a victim of it.

0:40:29.960 --> 0:40:30.760
<v Speaker 1>Well yeah, exactly.

0:40:30.880 --> 0:40:33.120
<v Speaker 4>So like I'm not really thinking about Semonel if I

0:40:33.120 --> 0:40:33.400
<v Speaker 4>don't have.

0:40:33.719 --> 0:40:36.920
<v Speaker 6>You know, they had this big food safety conference in

0:40:36.960 --> 0:40:39.560
<v Speaker 6>Cleveland a couple of weeks ago, four thousand people in

0:40:39.600 --> 0:40:42.919
<v Speaker 6>a room. And they always pick somebody once a year

0:40:43.040 --> 0:40:45.400
<v Speaker 6>to be like the keynote speaker for the conference. But

0:40:45.480 --> 0:40:48.239
<v Speaker 6>the guy who gave the speech, he goes. You know,

0:40:48.320 --> 0:40:50.759
<v Speaker 6>one of the things that we should really do is,

0:40:51.280 --> 0:40:53.960
<v Speaker 6>you know, put Bill Marler into retirement.

0:40:54.239 --> 0:40:55.320
<v Speaker 7>Is Bill Marler here.

0:40:57.840 --> 0:41:00.560
