I've had enough food poisoning and dysentery to get my own wing at Walter Reed, but I don't think I'd let one bad experience with healthy alternatives scare you off. I always worry about the amount of sugar my family jams into its collective pie hole, so we make a lot of stuff on the dehydrator. We also happened onto Flat Earth snacks which everyone seems to like and (knock wood) no salmonella yet... Thanks for the note :) Well, Jan, I can definitely empathize.

I do remember getting sick a few days ago and buying Veggie Booty a few days before that! I'm outraged! I thought that Veggie Booty would be a nice snack alternative to Potato Chips and Popcorn. I thought it would be a healthy change to my life and get me off junk food. I had already gone a diet last year and ever since then I've been working toward a healthy lifestyle. Ok, I'm not a gymnist and I do admit I like a daily indulge in some sort of sweet or coffee drink, but nothing extreme. I still try to cut out what infraction I can in my diet every now and then. I was looking around in the store and saw Veggie Booty. Why not buy it? It's healthy, low carb, and even contains vegetables. I ate it right away. The taste wasn't anything to get me leaping off the couch about, but it was semi addictive and I ate about 1/6 of the bag. A little while after I suddenly found myself disgusted with it. I assumed that it was because I had consumed far too much and that it would look splendid again tomorrow---but to no avail. I found that something was stopping me from eating it. I even felt guilty that I was abandoning this for just another junk-food craving. About three or four days later, I discovered something ausome: Melted Marshmellows. Mmmm...they were de-lish. Not the healthiest thing but still pretty good. Later that evening however, something awful happened and I got the worst stomach ache whilst over with my fabulous neighbors. I ran home and well....let's just say that was a very painful hour in my life. Luckily, it all ended and I went back to my neighbor's house to continue a grand evening. The only thing was...I couldn't figure out what had caused my stomach ache. I assumed it was the marshmellows. They weren't expired and there was no recall on marshmellows. I was still craving them so I got up the courage to make 2 more melted marshmellows the next day. No stomach ache. I was wrong to blame my melted marvels. They didn't do anything. The rest of the food I ate that day was fine and normal. I couldn't figure out what had done such destruction to my stomach...until today. Veggie Booty. As soon as I heard about the recall I ran to the pantry and disposed of that so called "healthy snack". Healthy?! YEAH RIGHT! Just ask my poor stomach about how healthy that junk is. Hmph. I learned my lesson all right. From now on I'll only trust local food items...Items that I eat everyday. I no longer feel guilty about a melted marshmellow or chocolate indulge. In fact, I heat those marshmellows proudly!!! Oh my gosh! I do remember getting sick a few days ago and buying Veggie Booty a few days before that! I’m outraged!
