Never underestimate the dangers of these strains of E. coli, especially if they have truly now discovered a previously unknown strain at CMG. It will take a very long time for them to regain their reputation and good will value. JMHO, but I wouldn't touch this with the proverbial "ten foot pole."

Years ago in Ohio, Lawson's changed its name to Dairy Mart due to a pornography lawsuit (remember billy?). Then business went on as usual - CMG should rename the restaurants ( something like "Methinks" would be nice) and everyone would eventually forget. By the way, Lawsons still exists

River, Are you saying you wouldn't touch the food with a ten foot pole or the stock? Mrs. billy ,on occasion , passes along snippets of medical knowledge that I try to comprehend such as " everyone has e-coli in them, but the average run of the mill e-coli won't kill you." The dangerous strains as River said that have mutated into God knows what, kill people , then are identified and dealt with before a major outbreak, if we're lucky. Remember the strawberries irrigated with human waste in Mexico a few summers ago ? Wasn't it also in muskmelons in 2014? I was going to eat supper , but have lost my appetite.

Mimo, I didn't realize that Lawson's originated in Ohio and that it still exists in Japan. The last one I remember was in Bowling Green Ohio in 1971. I had an operation on my leg and couldn't put weight on it for 11 months. I'd buy 2 glass half gallon bottles of low fat milk each day at the store figuring the calcium would speed up the healing. It may have worked although my milk intake had dried up to a few ounces each day in my breakfast cereal by the time I broke the leg for a third time 35 years later. Now I have enough titanium and stainless steel in there that the bones are protected. I have a heck of a time getting into the local court house or check in at the airport. You should see the looks I get after emptying my pockets and getting scanned.

I've been to plenty of Lawson's over in Japan in the past few years. They're as common as 7-11's are over here.
