Not all doom and gloom, though. Reacting to the findings, Dr Michael Doyle of the University of Georgia said: "Finding the DNA of salmonella or E.coli from a dead cell is not very helpful. Secondly, the pathogens they find, such as Yersinia enterocolitica and Aeromonas hydrophila, are not of common concern in foods."In terms of Clostridium perfrigens, you usually need to have millions of cells in the food in order to cause illness. And, it's not uncommon to find low levels in meats, which contain some C. perfringens naturally." So, basically: cook your burgers and don't eat anything with millions of cells of poison in and you should more or less be fine. Something to bear in mind this weekend when you and all 8.5 million of the other residents of the city descend on London Fields this weekend to do shit barbecues and play obnoxiously spread out games of frisbee together.@joelgolbyMore stuff from VICE:A Boy's Guide to Not Being a Dick This SummerEating Dirty With Ruby Tandoh #5: Burger KingWe Ate Rat Salad
