The problem is probably not folks like you and me. Its the nasty folks who don't follow sanitation protocols at the food mfg. The folks who do not practice good time-temp protocols.

At the refresher course I just went to as part of our studies examples were given. A bunch of Soldiers got sick and a veteran of Grenada, Desert Storm, Desert Shield, Bosnia, Iraq and Afghanistan was killed by food. The Commander had the cooks prepare breakfast that evening and it was stored improperly so they could attend a party. Can you imagine having to go to this Soldier's wife and telling her that her husband was killed by food at a training excercise?

In another example al lot of Soldiers got sick because some Food Svc Sgt decided to cook eggs that had been stored in a Conex for three days!
