Here is an article that lists

many of the SCD base foods as " dangerous " foods because they

can carry a lot of bacteria.

Y'know, WATER is dangerous and carries a lot of bacteria, too.

It's an interesting article, but I agree with the people who objected to

it. Scaring people away from healthy foods is absurd.

Somehow, it reminds me of a discussion on the old Long Island List about

cookware. Everyone agreed on needing to cook things. But this type of

cookware was dangerous because... and that type of cookware was dangerous

for another reason, and a third kind was also dangerous

because....

I don't think any of the disputants convinced their opposite numbers, but

I came to the conclusion that gathering and preparing food was dangerous

to one's health if one believes every article about every kind of

problem.
