In the North, sure.

Chipotle burritos are dense as gently caress, depending on how much you squeeze in there. Add chips and a drink, and it's a lot of food, even if it doesn't look like it. If I eat there, I'm going to feel sick because I've just scarfed a brick of food. (Still love their salads, though, even though they're not any healthier)

You need to up your water intake to go with that fibre though or you end up like that lady who wrote the bad yelp review of the enema place after clogging up the machine. Fibre logs don't without a river to raft them down.

Yeah it was hundreds (out of millions) in a couple incidents at Chipotle. I wasn't defending Chipotle though just mocking goons who claim a mere glance at a Double Down would give them the bends, lupis, and hypothermia

The one that just poisoned 600+ people in Ohio was clostridia, and I think the one before that was a norovirus.

No, it’s because the US currently is not interested in funding FDA-related departments responsible for ensuring there aren’t terrible outbreaks of largely preventable diseases in our food. There’s sabotage all right, but the indirect sort where the purpose to to make as much money as possible while the average person too “lazy” to cook for themselves pays out the rear end.

The main reason we keep getting ecoli breakouts in lettuce and spinach is that the field workers who are picking it are both paid by the pound and heavily encouraged to not take breaks so they poo poo in the fields where they're working. And because they're usually both very poor and either undocumented or have close family that is undocumented, they don't report slave-like working conditions for fear of losing their only income source and/or deportation (or worse) Enjoy your salad

Addendum The other primary reason for things like the Chipotle outbreaks is similar. Workers with no paid sick time coming to work when they shouldn't be for fear of losing their jobs or not making rent.  Vote as progressive as possible, people.

I don't know about Chipotle's specific situation, but the germs generally come in on meat or other sources. The bacteria is killed on the meat, but it cross contaminates items that aren't cooked, like lettuce. I think in several recent cases they did trace the outbreaks to actual farms though. Or maybe it's just a Rajneeshee cult trying to steal an election.

How does Presidential security handle the president ordering takeout anyway? Is there a network of secret fast food operations that do really deep background checks? Is the kitchen briefly occupied by the secret service? Do they just send some random low-level staffer down to pick it up and assume nobody's gonna figure out who it's actually for? Probably the third one, but I like my other ideas better. I don't actually expect anyone to know or share operational security information on this website, I just like the idea of complex security maneuvers to get the president a terrible hamburger.

Probably the third one, but I like my other ideas better. I'm pretty sure I've heard of situations where Trump sent staffers to go pick him up some fast food. Since it'd be near impossible to know who the food was for, I don't know if the Secret Service would do anything more than a cursory glance. A lot of people work in the White House and at least some of them eat like loving pigs.

Righto. I just remember a campaign event where the then-VP made a visit to my neighborhood and we were basically under siege. No traffic out, only traffic in with ID. Helicopters overhead while Secret Service stare down the ducks from the local pond. Therefore I choose to believe that security's doing 12th dimensional chess bullshit involving body doubles and undercover psy-ops to let a fat idiot eat the worst sandwich.

White House staff (as opposed to administration staff) serve at the pleasure of the sitting President, but generally aren’t changed as the administrations change. I know there’s been at least a few to serve thirty or forty years.
