Dinner Plans? (13 Viewers)

Isn’t it no more dangerous than getting take out food and touching infected containers, bags, etc.?

If the food is hot, the virus should be dead long before you get it home. As for take out bags, I wash my hands after handling/before eating. There is no way to avoid the risk in raw fish.

Or going to Vegas?

I maintain that Vegas was exponentially safer than being at work. In fact, in the time I was in Vegas, 27 firefighters in my department (of 152) were stricken with COVID while I was on vacation - 8 of them at my station. 2 of them are currently hospitalized.

Going into a burning building or going into public today poses a level of risk. Being smart about what you are doing is the difference between staying healthy or getting injured/sick.

I guess I understand the thought behind the cooking destroying the virus (no idea if it does though), but food and packaging is handled after cooking. Surely the risk is the same.

Not bothered that you went to Vegas, just in my mind eating raw sushi seems a much smaller risk in the grand scheme of things. Personally I'm not a fan of raw meat and seaweed, so I'm not eating it either lol

I believe there is no evidence of food transmitting covid short of someone who has it spitting or coughing on the food then you taking it and rubbing it in your eyes and/or nose. But I understand being overly cautious.

Given my age, I am a fairly low-moderate risk. However, since I am not usually called to assist perfectly healthy individuals, anyone I treat is placed at a greater risk.

I love sushi, but am simply avoiding it for the time being - not for my sake, but out of respect for those who need my help.

Totally understandable. But I think @Perthmike is saying that going to Las Vegas is exponentially riskier (even if infections at your department are increasing) than eating sushi.

Cooked up some flounders filets tonight (would've preferred fresh over frozen but didnt have any fresh at the store ) to go with it squash and bean sprouts! (Nabbed some sesame oil, perfect with the sprouts thanks for the tips!) And some cheesey rice pilaf!

No pics we got home late from an 8 hour mowing session on the eastern shore and wolfed down some food.... I know SHAME

@RocAFella1 when we host a meet up can I fly you in and have you chef for us? You can still play poker too!
Actually, if I can get both you and @Poker Zombie I think we'd be set
