Sorry kili, you must have misunderstood my post. I wasn't yelling at you,
I
would never do that! The problem I was reffering to was that the
burger's
didn't have tomotoes, not that the tomoto's have salmenella which
definately
IS a problem. My point was that I wasn't sure it was a problem that the
burgers did not include tomatos, they still tasted really good.
