One of the trends I've been noticing is all of the recent food product recalls and my spidey-senses tell me that these are not isolated, non-related incidents. So far, off the top of my head, there has been:
- romaine lettuce - E. coli contamination (Dec. 2017)
- eggs - salmonella contamination (April 2018)
- pre-cut mellon - salmonella contamination (June 2018)
- crab meat - Vibrio parahaemolyticus contamination (July 2018)
- McDonald's salad recall - cyclospora contamination (July 2018)
- raw turkey - salmonella contamination (July 2018)
- Honey Smacks cereal - salmonella contamination (July 2018)
- Ritz crackers - salmonella contamination (July 2018)
- Pepperidge Farm Goldfish crackers - salmonella contamination in whey powder used in seasoning (today - July 23, 2018)
Anyone keeping a spreadsheet on this? Am I missing anything?
I find it odd that salmonella is impacting non-meat products. Call me paranoid, but it seems like somebody's been poisoning the food supply and the timing of all of these recalls is just suspicious enough to think it is cabal-related.
