Trying To Break A Record…….
Around 300 Lebanese chefs prepare to produce a massive bowl of hummus, during a bid to break a record previously held by Israel and to reaffirm ownership over the popular Middle Eastern dish, in Beirut, Lebanon, Saturday Oct. 24, 2009. The event is part of a simmering war between Lebanon and Israel over regional cuisine. Lebanese businessmen accuse Israel of stealing traditional Middle Eastern dishes, like hummus, and marketing them worldwide as Israeli products. Lebanon breakes the Guinness world record previously held by Israel.

Bad Foods for You
Leafy greens — including lettuce and spinach — top the list of the 10 riskiest foods, according to a study from a nutrition advocacy group released Tuesday.
The Center for Science in the Public Interest listed the following foods, in descending order, as the most risky in terms of outbreaks: leafy greens, eggs, tuna, oysters, potatoes, cheese, ice cream, tomatoes, sprouts and berries.
The scientists rated these foods, all of them regulated by the Food and Drug Administration, by the number of outbreaks associated with them since 1990, and also provided the number of recorded illnesses.
The severity of the illnesses ranged from minor stomach aches to death, the center said. With leafy greens such as lettuce, the top cause of illness were pathogens like E. coli, Norovirus and Salmonella in foods that were not properly washed.
Over the past 20 years, leafy greens caused 363 outbreaks, resulting in 13,568 reported illnesses, the center said. That’s compared to berries, No. 10 on the list, which were associated with 25 outbreaks totaling 3,397 reported illnesses.
“Leafy greens are a healthy home run, but unfortunately they’re associated with food-borne illness,” said Sarah Klein, a staff lawyer with the center who helped prepared the study.
