      <![CDATA[<p>From Costco's recall:<blockquote>Four-pack of 12-ounce packages of "Discover Cuisine ™ Red Curry Chicken & Jasmine Rice." Each package bears the Canadian establishment number "Est. 302" inside the Canadian Food Inspection Agency mark of inspection as well as a "Best By" date of "12 18 08." The item number "2880" also appears by the UPC code on the package.</blockquote>No illnesses have been reported yet, and according to a <a href="http://www.pritzkerlaw.com/section-foodborne-illness/listeria/costco-recall-discover-cuisine-chicken.html">leading listeria litigation lawfirm</a> (now I know what to do with my law degree!), those with weakened immune systems are most susceptible to infection. Costco has a phone number for people seeking more information: (800) 774-2678.<br><br />

        <![CDATA[<p>@<a href="#c4953680" rel="nofollow">LikeYourFace</a>: Why? It's dangerous only if your immune system is completely shot, so unless right out of hospital with no immune system, there is no danger to a common person. Plus, it will affect you, only if poorly cooked. So grill your chicken throughly, and you won't feel a thing.</p>
<p>Every year, there is dozens of cases of e-coli in USA linked to fast foods, like McDonald. And no one banned the chicken. (E-coli is much more dangerous! Basically destroys your internal organs).</p>
<p>So eat your chicken in peace, or just go vegetarian :) (though not foolproof, either)</p>]]>
