i have yet to hear of a judge involved in this or any other outbreak of illness, and when i judge i feel EXTRA precautions have been taken by the teams for my safety.
i think if it is traced back to the root, we may find a vendor or team handing out samples to the general public at fault. there has been talk of a cole slaw that was perhaps not properly handled, i really hope they get to the bottom of this

When I first saw the list this is what stuck out at me. People just don't handle salads with mayo properly. I've seen potato salad sitting out for a few hours. Man...you talk about a painful sick. [smilie=rlp_smilie_207.gif]
Uncle Bubba said:As much as I want to and should do it...it takes brass balls to judge comps with all the crap people do, or don't do, to keep food safe for consumption...by anyone. Look at some of the pits and you can see why this happens. I saw one at the Royal by pretty prestigous team that I wouldn't put my shoes on to tie them...unreal.
