A Taste of Salmonella

How frightening. I used to go there almost annually. And Persian food would really be the booth I would go to, too. Gotta have my kabobs. I worked the Italian Fest in Grant Park in Chicago once, and we weren’t really too clean when we did it. I guess I can see how it can happen.
