This incident happened recently in North Texas. A woman went boating one Sunday taking with her some cans of coke which she put into the refrigerator of the boat. On Monday she was taken to the hospital and placed in the Intensive Care Unit. She died on Wednesday. The autopsy concluded she died of Leptospirosis. This was traced to the can of coke she drank from, not using a glass. Tests showed that the can was infected by dried rat urine and hence the disease Leptospirosis. Rat urine contains toxic and deathly substances. It is highly recommended to thoroughly wash the upper part of soda cans before drinking out of them. The cans are typically stocked in warehouses and transported straight to the shops without being cleaned. A study at NYCU showed that the tops of soda cans are more contaminated than public toilets (i.e).. full of germs and bacteria. So wash them with water before putting them to the mouth to avoid any kind of fatal accident. I just found this on the internet so i don't know 100% if its true or not but that is really nasty
[QUOTE="unholymight"]False information. http://www.snopes.com/medical/toxins/raturine.asp oh well i said i didn't know if it was true so thanks for clearing that up but its still nasty
Damn, how could the US government's strict inspectors miss that? I can't believe food for human consumption is allowed to sit in moldy, rat - infested warehouses, this is all new to me! -Laughs-
[QUOTE="MrEnvelope"][QUOTE="blackngold29"] Yeah, 87% of unsourced statements are false.BlueBirdTS
Can I get a source for your fact Mr. Blackngold29? :P
It is a commonly know fact that 87% of all statistics are made up, as Mr. Blackngold29 has stated.
following that logic if 87% of statistics are made up then wouldn't there be an 87% chance that that statistic is made up? unless, of course you can link to a creditable site
