But this story over at CNN certainly frightened me. The FDA has approved (!!!!!!) the spraying of a cocktail of VIRUSES (double-!!!!!) on ready to eat meats (see above love for the AM/PM Jumbo Spicy Dog). Supposedly these viruses attack the bacteria that causes listeriosis, a bad bug in it's own right. Now, I am certainly no virologist, but one thing I learned from the bird flu hysteria is that viruses like to do this little thing called mutation (triple-!!!!!!). What's to say that the viruses intended to make my Jumbo Spicy Dog safer (and my slim jim, and my lunch meat...) won't turn into radicalized human hating extremist viruses?!?!?! And there will be nothing on the packaging (according to the CNN article) that will tell you your are eating viru-meat. I don't like this. I don't WANT this. What do I do?

No good will come of this...
Now, we all know I'm a big fan of unhealthy foods. I mean, there is no finer breakfast than an AM/PM Jumbo Spicy Dog with catsup and mustard and a small can of Pringles Cheese 'ums washed down with a Diet Pepsi Big Slam. Oh the joy!
