Dude, for $100, I'd eat a bag that was proven to be contaminated.

I can eat anything. I remember I ate some pork that got my family sick, but I was hungry and finished it all off. I was fine. Happened again with some chicken that they thought had some salmonella on it. Eaten.

Exactly. Disease is natures way of weeding out the weak. We should not interfere. Some people can just eat anything, like you and myself.
 
The chances of getting ecoli are really low, and since I am a health person the chances of dying from itt would also be really low. So, I would deffinitely do it.

I would. $100 is worth it.

But normally I would never eat spinach in my salad anyways. Spinach = Nasty

better hope you never go to a restaurant that serves mixed field greens in your salad... most mescalin mixes contain spinach (sp on mescalin?)

So, you trip a lil bit at lunch, and walk away with $100. Thats a plus 2 in my book.
 
You are underestimating the power of $100. I will eat any salad for a $100 as long as I don't need to toss one.
 
People really are dumb enough to believe this hype? How soon until everyone is wearing gas masks everywhere they go? (got close to that during SARS).

Among the ill persons, 95 (52%) were hospitalized, 29 (16%) developed a type of kidney failure called hemolytic-uremic syndrome (HUS), and an adult in Wisconsin died. One hundred thirty-one (72%) were female and 17 (9%) were children under 5 years old. The proportion of persons who developed HUS was 30% in children (<18 years old), 8% in persons 18 to 59 years old, and 15% in persons 60 years old or older. Among ill persons who provided the date when their illnesses began, 85% became ill between August 19 and September 5. The peak time when illnesses began was August 30 to September 1 -- 33% of persons with the outbreak strain became ill on one of those 3 days.

.000000009% of the population gets some form of e. coli (ver common), and everyone goes nuts and stops eating spinach? It's spinach from three select counties in California.. You have a better chance of winning the lottery on your birthday, walking outside of the store and getting struck by lightening at the same time that Osama Bin Laden self detonates at the self-serve gas pump.
