Hi all...
I had a sandwich for dinner today. Was really enjoying it until I suddenly remembered the romaine lettuce e. coli outbreak recently. I live in Cali, one of the 13 states affected...
I'm not sure if the lettuce I had was romaine or not...but after looking it at it more closely I think it was romaine. It was darker green than most romaine I've seen however...which is why I also thought it could have been butter lettuce. When I went back to look at the ingredients that came on the packaging, it just said "lettuce" so I wasn't sure...Ended up throwing the last bit of the sandwich out but I had already eaten so much, including the lettuce.
Now I'm very worried that I'll be catching the E.Coli strain that's been reported. I've been trying to stay calm using deep breathing and distractions and what not, but it's not really helping...
