Cantaloupe - do you still eat it?

[sommap]

That is the biggest health scare.  So many people getting very sick from eating it.  I had some in my refrigerator and have not been able to eat it even though my grocery store chain supposedly did not buy from there.  Are you still eating it?

[poppy1]

I passed it up at the market. The scare is much too great to take chances on eating any right now. :dontknow:I'm sure that if they destroyed the farm and have recalled the rest , that things will get better, although some of the people had eaten it thirty days before their illness.

Yes it is pretty crazy.  I havent eaten any cantilope since I heard about this, and thats too bad cause I like it

[ljrjess69]

family loves it but were not getting none this year

[kqa]

Every now and then I like it.  I wouldn't want to eat it every day.

We have continued to eat cantaloupe but we are certainly washing it better.

[mc1962]

I'm kinda scared of all the disease that they are finding in things these days. I like cantaloupe but will avoid it for awhile till the see what the problem is.

[monnee]

Not now for now.  I'm also not eating ground turkey, romaine lettuce, and tyson beef which has been in the news too recently on the recall or do not eat for now list.

I decided not to take a stroll in the park today because people who are outside tend to get struck by lightning. I don't let fear rule my life. Unless I it is for certain that what I am about to eat will poison and kill me I usually don't pay attention to things like this. Until I see people die around me after eating a cantaloupe I will assume that the chances of someone running over me at the supermarket parking lot to be greater than the chances of dieing from eating something.

I haven't heard about the cantaloupe scare

[eman27]

I am currently not eating cantaloupe but will definitely eat it in the future when all this illness and spreading of a virus cease because it is a very tasty fruit when ripe. 

[dreamyxo]

I just bought a cantaloupe last week but that evening that I bought it I heard about a man in my state who died from listeria from eating cantaloupe. Before I heard about it I did taste the watermelon and it wasn't ripe so I'm not going to eat it.  It's still sitting in my fridge.

[Gerianne]

it is a bland fruit; not much taste.

[patycake56]

As much as we love cantaloupe  we r passing it up it it isreally scarey thinkin like that can make you so sick

[Hinotoriai]

I don't cantaloupe anyway so the scare really doesn't effect. I just don't like it anymore even though it use to be good when I was younger.
