http://www.gadling.com/entry/1234000650052118/

Extractions: I lived with several families in Guatemala, and had clean, safe food prepared in clean kitchens in each house. Mothers the world around know what they have to do in the kitchen to protect their children. Their kitchens might not look spic and span like a brand new suburban house's does, and they certainly don't use antibacterial soaps everywhere, but their food is still safe. I believe that restaurants that cater to travelers don't have the same incentives to keep clean and safe. So that's when you really need to think carefully about your choices. In both Guatemala and Mexico, I found grills with counters and open air kitchens safest, because I could observe the state of the kitchen and the actions of the person cooking. I also favor foods high in acid (fresh squeezed orange juice) or cooked over high heat and immediately served, to minimize risk. For this same reason, fried food can be a good choice, as long as you see them fry it for you.

Extractions: In January 1991 a number of people suffered food poisoning after eating burgers from McDonald's in Friargate, Preston. Some had severe medical problems requiring hospitalisation. McDonald's refused to admit responsibility despite a public Health Laboratory official report into the incident identifying the company, which concluded that `the problem may have not been completely restricted to that single branch, or to a single hamburger chain' . Survivors of the outbreak only received some compensation (without admission of liability) after strenuous and lengthy effort.

Is the high number of cases due to better monitoring of outbreaks or because there are more dangerous forms of persistent bacteria? "I think overall we're seeing better surveillance and better detection of outbreaks," said Mike Doyle, a food scientist at the University of Georgia. "We don't know for sure if it's because there are more pathogens in our food supply. That's an unanswered question." ALSO: CDC: Source of Guatemalan berry contamination still unknown So far in 1998, there have been six recalls of ground beef due to fear of E. coli the last in June when Costco recalled frozen ground beef patties from stores in 24 states.

Cases can affect one person or can occur as an outbreak in a group of people who all ate the same contaminated food. While many cases are the result of bacteria, some cases can be the result of poisonous components of plants and animals. Food poisoning affects between 60 and 80 million people worldwide each year, resulting in approximately 6 to 8 million deaths. Signs and Symptoms Food poisoning from bacteria causes nausea, vomiting, abdominal cramping, and diarrhea. Specific bacteria may cause these signs and symptoms: Clostridium botulinum C. botulinum , or botulism): weakness, blurred vision, sensitivity to light, double vision, paralyzed eye nerves, difficulty speaking, trouble swallowing, paralysis that spreads downward, respiratory failure, death C. botulinum

Extractions: Toggle English Spanish Overview Symptoms Treatment Prevention Definition: Most food-borne illnesses are considered food poisoning. However, classical food poisoning refers to poisoning with foods contaminated with enterotoxins produced by staphylococcal organisms, or other common bacteria such as E. coli. Causes, incidence, and risk factors: Classical food poisoning is rare in the United States because of improved food handling and storage techniques. However, it occurs sporadically at picnics, school cafeterias, and large social functions where foods may be left unrefrigerated for extended periods of time or handling techniques are not optimal. Classical food poisoning usually appears within 2 to 3 hours of ingestion, although it may appear earlier or later. Onset is heralded by nausea followed by vomiting and abdominal cramping Diarrhea , which may be bloody, usually occurs. Other symptoms may include fever and chills, weakness and headache. Botulism (from improper home canning) can cause immediate neurologic collapse, with respiratory failure and death.

Extractions: Have you ever left a restaurant not feeling so well? You just ate too much and you will feel better later, right? Maybe not. You could be infected with food poisoning. People with food borne illness often think they are suffering from the "twenty-four hour flu." Food safety involves three areas; food storage, food handling, and cooking. Many people believe that food safety means a clean looking kitchen, but it also depends on safe food practices. Forget the ten second rule and become informed about food borne illnesses. Many times we know when food is spoiled. The food looks or smells bad! However, some poisonous bacteria cannot be seen, smelled or tasted. According to the FDA, here are a few of the more common food poisons (you can check our links for more information). Staphylococcus aureas , or "staph" has symptoms that include nausea, vomiting and diarrhea, which may only last a day or two. Ordinary cooking does not always destroy the staph toxin. That is why you have to be careful not to let it grow to the toxic level. Salmonell a is another food borne illness. The symptoms include diarrhea, vomiting, and fever. It may last anywhere from two to seven days. This bacteria is found in raw or uncooked foods, such as poultry, eggs and meat. Watch out for cookie dough too! Salmonella can be killed by properly cooking food to an internal temperature of 165 degrees.

The cause of the outbreak is believed to be a local restaurant serving fried dough sticks, sesame cakes and glutinous rice traditional breakfast items. Most of those affected are middle school students and migrant workers who frequented the restaurant in question, media reports said. All fell sick on or shortly after Saturday morning. According to the English language website of the People's Daily newspaper "many people" have died, but no actual number has been specified. Central authorities in Beijing have ordered "all efforts be made to save the victims" the state-run Xinhua news agency reported.

Extractions: E. coli food poisoning Many varieties (or strains) of E. coli are harmless. But some strains cause diseases, such as the E. coli food poisoning that we study. Strains of E. coli associated with this food poisoning are referred to as enterohaemorrhagic E. coli (EHEC for short) because the symptoms include haemorrhage from the digestive tract. In North America, E. coli food poisoning is commonly called hamburger disease because it is often acquired by eating poorly-cooked minced beef. When contaminated beef is ground up, the bacteria are spread throughout the meat, and are killed only by thorough cooking. It is estimated that as few as 10 surviving bacteria will establish an infection. (E. coli photograph courtesy Shirley Owens, Michigan State University) The result of an infection may be as little as a case of diarrhea, possibly with blood in the stools (haemorrhagic colitis). From 5 to 10% of people infected develop a serious condition known as haemolytic uraemic syndrome (HUS), in which the kidneys are damaged. HUS can lead to permanent kidney damage, requiring long-term dialysis treatment. Some patients die, with the very young and very old being most at risk. Although there are potential therapies in clinical trials, the current accepted practice is simply supportive therapy for the patient. There is a need for new therapies, which we are addressing by studying the molecular basis of this disease. What distinguishes EHEC from harmless

(CNN) Nearly 30 elementary school children in the Philippines have died after eating fried cassava balls obtained from a vendor, a local official told CNN. Fourteen children died Wednesday before reaching hospitals and 13 died upon arrival, a spokesman for Ubay Mayor Eutiquio Bernales said. Two more children also have died, but it was not clear when. Thirty-five more are in critical condition. The victims suffered severe stomach pain, then vomiting and diarrhea after eating the snack during morning recess, The Associated Press reported. They were taken to at least four hospitals near the school in Mabini, a town on Bohol Island, about 610 kilometers (380 miles) southeast of Manila, AP said. "Some said they took only two bites because it tasted bitter and the effects were felt 5-10 minutes later," Dr. Harold Gallego of Garcia Memorial Provincial Hospital in the nearby town of Talibon told AP. The vendor who sold the cassava balls insisted nothing was wrong with them and ate a few to prove the point. Now she, too, is in critical condition.

Extractions: More Food-Safety Measures Needed on Farms, Says CSPI An analysis of 3,500 food-poisoning outbreaks shows that contaminated produce is responsible for the greatest number of individual food-borne illnesses. The Center for Science in the Public Interest (CSPI) still enthusiastically recommends eating more fresh fruits and veggies, not less. But it also recommends instituting better food-safety practices on farms in America and abroad to help reduce the risk to consumers. Dirty irrigation water and the use of untreated manure can help spread animal pathogens to fruits and vegetables, said CSPI food safety director Caroline Smith DeWaal. While consumers can help minimize risk by careful washing, much of the responsibility for food safety must begin right on the farm. In November 2003, an outbreak of Hepatitis A was traced back to green onions imported from Mexico. The outbreak resulted in 555 illnesses and 3 deathsmany of which CSPI says could have been prevented with better practices on the farm and a more responsive surveillance system.

Extractions: CSPI Report Recommends Single Food Safety Agency WASHINGTONSloppy farm practices may be largely responsible for making fruits and vegetables one of the top causes of foodborne illnesses, according to a report released today by the Center for Science in the Public Interest (CSPI), the nonprofit food-safety watchdog group. Of the outbreaks of foodborne illness tracked in the Centers database, contaminated produce is responsible for more than 18,000 cases of illnessmore than any other food source. While more is better is the rule when it comes to eating fruits and vegetables, our research indicates that contaminated produce needs an urgent government response, said CSPI food safety director Caroline Smith Dewaal. Earlier this summer, an outbreak of E. coli O157:H7-contaminated lettuce sickened 29 people in Washington state. Last spring, cantaloupe contaminated with Salmonella sickened 50 people in at least four states.
