Caused by eating live beating hearts torn out of innocent victims? Funny how that works!

I can see it now: more demands for reparations from descendants of white Europeans.

You say that as if it is a bad thing.
After all diversity is our strength and who are we to judge other people’s cultures?

lol!!
Yeah I’ve had more than a handful of family get salmonella and it was a horrible few days or so for them!
But they didn’t die and I find it hard to believe a civilization was wiped out by it.

The Spanish arriving there was like the Allied armies rolling into the death camps. The Spanish did humanity a service there.

I worked at a large Summer retreat in the Summer of 1965. About a week into the Summer and thankfully before the guests arrived, nearly the entire staff of 450 came down with food poisoning.
We finally figured out that everyone who got sick had eaten the chicken and rice. I awoke in the night and my room mate asked. You got it too? I barely made it to the bathroom.
The Staff Dr. was in the rec room of the boys dorm passing out paregoric in paper cups from gallon jugs. His wife was doing the same in the girl’s dorm. After around an hour it took effect. Until then it was really bad.

When I was a kid, President Eisenhower got food poisoning at some outdoor event. Sort of a big picnic. They eventually said it was the potato salad. Everyone blamed the mayonnaise in the salad.
