Let's spin the wheel! What did bfx get sick with?! A common cold? Could it be COVID19?

Try...Salmonella...? It's the only thing I can think of that would have hit me like a truck like this. Had a salad a couple of nights ago with raw onion and by the next day could barely make it up or down a set of stairs, splitter headache, basically every common symptom except for diarrhea, thank god.

Feeling a little better today which puts me at a solid 50%. Check your onions everybody!

I haven't eaten raw greens that weren't grown by someone I know since this thing began. I miss greens.

I feel like it's usually the greens that make people sick.

Yeah, it usually is! I feel comfortable with the greens, they came from a farm I pickup a CSA package from on a weekly basis and have had before from them. The onion...not so much.
