I would normally look for a rating if I'm staying for more than one night.  However, if I'm just going somewhere for a concert, I'm happy enough with a travelodge or a b & b that's been rated good by reviewers.

Hi Avalon - makes you scared to buy them or toms and lettuce 

I know.... Mind you, weren't they organic???

Yes they were, Baz. 

 

I'm a veggie and don't usually think too much about food poisoning.  Just wash the salad stuff and that's it.  Just goes to show no-one can be complacent

it sounds like something got into the growing process with whatever fertiliser they used.  I also don't think they have been washed properly although if the bug is already in the product, no amount of washing with get rid of it    scary!

and worse still Spain where these cucumbers originate from are still selling and exporting them    allegedly none have made it to the UK market - but I wouldn't want to take a chance on that

Me neither, Pengy.  Most of the victims have been in Germany, I think, but why take the chance
