Don’t Eat Netflix Documentaries | Episode 11

Who doesn’t love burgers?!

They’re as American as you get. But in 1993, the fast food burger chain Jack in the Box had a massive E. coli outbreak that affected hundreds, killed four children and ended with the company paying out about $98 million, with one victim receiving $15.6 million. It’s also the subject of the upcoming Netflix documentary, Poisoned.

It’s also the subject of this week’s episode of Don’t Eat Poop! Francine and Matt discuss the seminal event that created the modern food safety industry, including its after effects and implications on their own careers in food safety.
