THE JACK IN THE BOX!!

Something that caught my attention in this chapter was about a local restaurant called Jack in the Box. An outbreak began of food poisoning and officials traced it to this restaurant. They were cooking undercooked hamburgers, and  Around this time approximately two hundred people were sick and had to be hospitalized, and sadly four people died most of these victims were children. A girl named Lauren Beth Rudolph ate one hamburger from jack in the box a week before Christmas she was sent to the hospital on Christmas eve she suffered terrible pains and has three heart attacks dies in her MOTHER’S ARMS on December 28,1992..She was also six years old
          The quotation I decide to use which is on pg 199 is “The jack in the box chain almost went out of business amid all the publicity” the reason why I chose this quotation is because how after all the outbreaks why didn’t the F.D.A or the government or someone say we are going to stop serving this its causing too much of a destruction. This right here really caught my eye how can people died and get terrible sick that not even the company has any pity this is what is exactly going on right now with the obesity aned to this day people are still getiing sick thousands of have been hospitalizad, and hundreds died
