November: a Month for Family, Celebration and E. Coli
Monday, December 7th, 2009There are seven types of E. Coli, I’ve learned. The kind that can kill people lives in meat (well, more specifically feces-contaminated meat) and there’s even a beneficial strain.
The waterborne type isn’t usually deadly. Which is good, because I drank ever-so-much of it the week before Thanksgiving. I was
attempting to rehydrate after an evening o’ food poisoning. Turns out West Portland’s always-delicious tap water was tainted. With POO.
On the plus side, I lost about 4 pounds. And it wasn’t even that bad, nothing like actual food poisoning. There must be a way to market this.
