Iowa Restaurant Inspections Got Wild

You won’t believe what inspectors found in Iowa restaurants last month: cockroaches, rodents, moldy salmon, and even expired food being served! Some places had so many violations, kitchens were shut down on the spot. One spot had mouse droppings near open food, another had moldy olives and salmon, and a McDonald’s had a gross ice machine. The good news? Most issues were fixed fast, but yikes—check those inspection reports before you eat out! #IowaEats #FoodSafety #RestaurantFails #Health #BodyHealth

Food Poisoning Cases Are Spiking!

Did you know food poisoning infections in England just hit a 10-year high? Salmonella and campylobacter cases jumped 17% in the past year—yikes! Most cases come from undercooked meat, eggs, or even unwashed veggies. Kids and older folks are especially at risk. The experts say: stick to the 4Cs—chilling, cleaning, cooking, and avoiding cross-contamination. Basically, double-check those use-by dates, wash your hands, and don’t mix raw and cooked stuff. Who knew your kitchen could be so risky? #FoodSafety #PublicHealth #KitchenHacks #Health #BodyHealth

Leftovers You Should NEVER Keep 😳

Did you know your fridge might be a food poisoning trap? Turns out, stuff like leftover rice, creamy seafood pasta, and even potato salad can turn toxic FAST—even if they look fine. Experts say things like cooked rice, mayo salads, and mushroom dishes are basically bacteria magnets and can make you super sick, even after reheating. And don’t even think about saving sushi or garlic oil! I’m honestly shook at how risky some of these family faves are. Which one surprised you most? #FoodSafety #KitchenHacks #Leftovers #Home

Eww, Look What Inspectors Found!

Three Central Florida restaurants just got shut down after health inspectors found some seriously gross stuff—think rodent droppings, cockroaches, and food stored all wrong. One spot even had over 100 rodent droppings and chew marks on flour bags! Two of the places cleaned up and reopened, but one diner is gone for good. Would you ever go back after hearing this? #CentralFlorida #RestaurantFails #FoodSafety #Health #BodyHealth

Walmart’s Chicken Alfredo Recall Drama

Ready-to-eat meals just got a little scarier—Walmart and Kroger are recalling their chicken fettuccine alfredo after a deadly Listeria outbreak. 17 people across 13 states got sick, and there have been three deaths. If you grabbed any FreshRealm or Home Chef chicken alfredo recently, check your fridge ASAP. Look for the USDA mark and those establishment numbers (EST. P-50784, P-47770, or P-47718). Toss it or return for a refund—better safe than sorry! #RecallAlert #FoodSafety #Walmart #Health #BodyHealth

Parasite Found in Euro Salad Mixes?!

Ready-to-eat salads in Europe just got a little less appetizing—scientists found traces of the Toxoplasma parasite in about 4% of salad mixes across 10 countries. Most positives popped up in winter, and it didn’t matter what type of salad it was. The scary part? This parasite can be risky for pregnant people and those with weak immune systems. Researchers say we need better ways to check our greens before they hit our plates! #FoodSafety #SaladAlert #Toxoplasma #Health

Leftovers You Should NEVER Reheat

Did you know your innocent bowl of leftover rice could actually send you to the ER? Turns out, rice, pasta, seafood, eggs, foil-wrapped potatoes, and especially those random leftover combos are basically a bacteria party waiting to happen. Reheating these can make you seriously sick—think food poisoning, botulism, or worse. Next time you’re eyeing that mystery container in the fridge, maybe just let it go. Your stomach will thank you! #FoodSafety #Leftovers #KitchenFails #Food

Chocolate Treat Recall Alert!

Did you grab JLM Dark Chocolate Nonpareils lately? Lipari Foods just recalled these snacks because they contain milk that’s not listed on the label—a huge deal for anyone with allergies. Check your stash for lot numbers on the bottom (28202501A, 29202501A, 23202504A, 14202505A, 15202505A, 03202506A). If you’re allergic to milk, don’t risk it—return them for a refund! No allergic reactions reported yet, but better safe than sorry. Full details and pics are up on the FDA site. #RecallAlert #FoodSafety #AllergyWarning #Health

Butcher Shops Shut Down After Tragedy

Two butcher shops in northern France just closed after a 12-year-old girl died from severe food poisoning, and several other kids got sick. The suspected culprit? E. coli from meat products sold at these shops. Authorities are still investigating, but all the kids ate meat from the same places before getting sick. The shops are closed for now while they test samples. Food safety drama like this has been popping up everywhere lately—remember the recent E. coli recalls in the US? Stay tuned for updates! #FoodSafety #BreakingNews #Ecoli #Health
