I agree. The sickest I ever was in my life was years ago with food poisoning - after being home sick all day I managed to somehow drive to the doctor who took one look at me and said "can you call someone to come drive you to the hospital or would you like us to call an ambulance - you're too sick to drive!" A week in the hospital with iv fluids. I would never buy food this way or eat anything that I wasn't sure about.
