Hence, it's the cross-contamination.

And improperly cooked pork will give you trichinosis. And butcher often cut beef and pork with the same blades.

I read it on the Innernets.

I don't believe this is correct. In most establishments the bar is responsible for cutting
up all the garnishes for drinks. Also most places buy their meat precut to portion size
and even if they do cut their own meat, the knife used for that is vastly different
than a knife used for cutting garnishes.

Obviously you missed the point.

I ask for sparkling. Might squeeze lemon/lime that comes on the rime of the glass into it, but never put the slice in.

that is what recommended. But, really, like space-time said, "What doesn't kill ..." I think hot chocolate powder mixed with regular milk would more likely do me in.

The lemon makes the water, esp. in So. CA, easier to drink.

perhaps one could choose to live in a place where the water and air doesn't make one ill. he'd have nothing to Kap (Yap) about
