Cantaloupe

[SmartyTru]

Have you given up Cantaloupe since the Listeria outbreak?

[MessiahMews]

I didn't know anything about it.

However, we buy locally and organic only.

We don't buy anything mainstream anymore.

[LaTashaS28]

It has never really been my favorite thing to eat, but I have heard about the outbreak though.

[patycake56]

omg yes it scares me to death

[AdamH1978]

I have a strong dislike of cantaloupe so I don't need a new reason to stay away from it.  Just the smell of cantaloupe makes my stomach flip flop.

[ktheodos]

dont really eat cantaloupe much

[mzbrowneyez22]

i dont eat cataloupe, but i heard it was in only one state

[cloudsoup]

i've actually never bought cantaloupe!
i like it once in awhile, usually in the summer
if i'm somewhere with a salad bar or something.

it doesn't seem like it's a very popular fruit.
good thing listeria didn't affect watermelon instead!

[sdecaro558]

To be honest, I never really ate it before the outbreak - but if I had, I wouldn't give it up.

[monnee]

Yes, for now and other food products contaminated with E. coli, Listeria, and Salmonella.

[Adroden2010]

i dont like cantalope and i havent heard anything about an outbreak?

[trucktina]

They found the source of the outbreak, apparently. It was some old equipment, and a puddle of water nearby that was to blame.

ewwwwwwww lol sorry to hear that

[sledgewig]

I like cantaloupe but haven't bought it in a while (since before the outbreak) due to the expense.

[hicaniplay]

No it didn't stop us buying, but we only bought around... four? Because of expense. I don't know, I wasn't really paying that much attention and I haven't been the primary grocery buyer lately. I just needed to hear the general affected area and decide it probably wasn't in our stores. Not that I don't wash purchases before eating anyways. 
It did bring about some discussion and, later, some jokes though.
