In a New York Times interview, Fieri — regarded as a populist hero — compared workers collecting unemployment to kids filling up on Doritos

Guy Fieri has spent the entire pandemic working to save restaurants. He partnered with the National Restaurant Association to launch a $21.5 million relief fund, offering $500 grants to hospitality workers. He fed firefighters in Northern California. He called out Jeff Bezos for not donating. He has used his popular, lovable, nigh-indestructible persona as a populist hero to shine light on small businesses across the country. But he also has a confusing message about the return of restaurants: Spoiled workers are holding the industry back. “You can’t sit on your ass and expect that it’s going to come to you because it’s not,” he told Kara Swisher on her New York Times podcast Sway.

Researchers have found a wide distribution and high diversity of Shiga toxin-producing E. coli (STEC) in German flour. Recent outbreaks associated with contaminated flour and undercooked dough have been reported in the United States and Canada.

The study on German flour revealed that it can serve as a vector for STEC strains with a high pathogenic potential. Uncooked flour, such as that in cookie dough and cake batter, should not be consumed because of the risk of infection.

In January 2020, the German Federal Institute for Risk Assessment (BfR) published an assessment of STEC in flour and gave advice to consumers on how to mitigate risk.

Widespread contamination
Researchers characterized 123 STEC strains isolated from flour products collected between 2015 and 2019 across Germany as part of food surveillance programs. The most isolates were in 2018 with 56 and the least was eight in 2016 and 2019.

Over 2,900 businesses owned by women, people of color, and veterans haven’t gotten the sorely needed money the SBA promised them following lawsuits filed by MAGA-aligned groups on behalf of white restaurant owners

Gresser had big plans for the grant money: She was going to pay back rent, and set some funds aside for maintenance costs. Most importantly, she was going to use it to hire more staff.… Read more
