Fun fact: "Airplane!" is actually a parody of the 1957 disaster film, "Zero Hour!" Pretty funny to watch both.

I just read in an AARP magazine that over 48 million Americans are afflicted with some kind of food poisoning every year.

Please tell me that's not true!

It's very common but, again, most attribute it to "catching" a "stomach flu" from others. A lot of people simply don't know how to cook or handle food safely anymore, and then of course there's a lot of eating of fast food or in restaurants; heaven only knows what all goes on there.

I've had food poisoning four times. Twice I gave it to myself: eating meringue before baking (raw egg whites) and once with under-cooked chicken.

I've learned my lesson and am very cautious now with food prep and eating raw and under-cooked foods.
