Y'all are making me hungry. Throw the ham out, have seafood for Easter!![]()
This was shrimp. I am very OCD about the way I handle food (that's why I have one sink for prepping everything but meat/seafood, another for prepping meat/seafood, and another for dirty dishes), so it wasn't due to any mishandling on my part. People tease me all the time about being so OCD about food prep.BR, food poisoning is more likely to occur from improperly cooked or improperly handled food, unless we are talking about eating raw shellfish.

Would be a bit against the Old Testament, would it not? Of course so is the ham, I guess.

If you cooked it the proper length of time, and held it at the proper temp up until the time you ate it, as well as handled it properly, you would have killed all the cooties and not have been sick. Holding temp is critical. I've had food poisoning from eating shellfish more times than I care to mention, each from eating it at temps which are inviting to the cooties.This was shrimp.

I'm Methodist, and Jesus picked fishermen to be his disciples.![]()

I think I did, but I don't have any scientific evidence to prove that to be true.If you cooked it the proper length of time, and held it at the proper temp up until the time you ate it, as well as handled it properly, you would have killed all the cooties and not have been sick.

Thanks for the advice.
