Isn’t it a frozen seafood company?

When i did a summer abroad in Spain with a family as a teen, I kept getting violently stomach sick until i noticed they didn't refrigerate eggs. I stopped eating all the food they served made with eggs and my stomach was much happier.

How do you guys know it was pancit and it was from a Philippine man???

That’s what I’d like to know.

I also don’t get how pan it would make someone sick.

Do a simple google search and the first result gives you all this info.

All I got was a NYT article and Reddit thread.

Well, if it's on Reddit, you know it's true.

All of the above + bacteria, and lots of it. A Filipino would never even consider refrigerating pancit, maybe just put a fan nearby to shoo flies off of it. Likely prepped it on Saturday or Sunday, left it sitting out on the counter until Monday morning, and then served for lunch at the potluck.

I think we can stop the generalized attack on a single nationality.

But it's not! I even have a yard sign that says ”Hate has no home here."

I rarely eat food coworkers bring in. I don't know how clean people are. A coworker offered a cookie she baked last week. I took it but threw it in the trash after she left.

I used to think DCUM was uptight and ridiculous for “I don’t eat at potlucks” or “I don’t eat at other people’s houses,” but the older I get and the more I see or have experienced, the more I pick at “safe” foods and beverages at events and parties, and actually fill up at home.

I remember going to a neighborhood Bunco party that had been planned at a neigbhor’s house for at least a month. Her house was FILTHY. Filthy powder room, filthy kitchen, I opened the bottle of wine I had brought, chose a Solo cup from the very center of the package, and drank only that. If you don’t clean for guests when you 100% know they are coming over, when do you clean? Why would you serve food from a dirty kitchen. No more communal food for me, not after what I’ve seen myself or read about on DCUM.

So I thought this would be the stuffed ham with oysters a Maryland thing. It has a history of getting people sick,

If you’re around that food at work all day its probably the last thing you want to eat.
