ChiChi's got those onions from Mexico and they were packed in ice made in
Mexico (don't drink the water). NAFTA has brought freer trade but perhaps
Mexico does not have sanitation standards equal to those in the good ole
USA. My question is, didn't ChiChi's WASH those onions before using them?
Would washing them, without cooking them, be enough to clean them of any
fecal matter that would otherwise cause hepatitis? I suspect they would be
OK if cooked but maybe that is open to debate as well.
