Luckily (knock on wood) it has not happened since. My boss swung into action fast and was equally repulsed by it. <br /><br />And thanks for the congrats :) We are ridiculously happy!The Vegan Explorerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10317249415516907357noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4484245444576272043.post-88395874406296789542011-04-20T21:48:14.203-07:002011-04-20T21:48:14.203-07:00Yuck!

I definitely agree with you that the raw-beef-on-lunch was especially nasty because you're vegan, but (call me crazy) I happen to think putting raw meat on top of even cooked meat is uncool--not to mention days old raw meat. My husband still does eat meat (le sigh), but when it goes in the fridge, it goes in double wrapped and away from everything else, especially already cooked food. Thousands of people get sick every year from salmonella, so it's not just a "don't stack raw meat on top of food because she's vegan" argument. It's "let's not poison people, m'kay?". <br /><br />Also, somehow I missed saying congratulations on your engagement. That's fabulous.Chelsea Ahernhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07914169713073114842noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4484245444576272043.post-7857402694983973862011-04-04T15:23:17.327-07:002011-04-04T15:23:17.327-07:00Yesterday, I had to buy the ingredients for a meal...Yesterday, I had to buy the ingredients for a meal at my church's community kitchen. We were cooking for 75 and while I would have loved to do a vegetarian meal, the hungry and homeless are often picky, and they need to get a lot of calories in with one meal. So I ended up doing pasta and meat sauce...which left me with the bizarre experience of buying 20 lbs. of ground beef. I bought more beef in that trip than I've probably bought in my entire life, combined. Fortunately nobody made me touch it in the kitchen.Liz Shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07217869009677408740noreply@blogger.com
