If you're reading this, Frank, give me a call and make me an offer. The newspaper reports and TV stations were in a frenzy earlier this month because an inspection at Roselyn Bakery's main facilities revealed some health code violations. One would have thought the bakery had been adding anthrax and HIV to its cookies by the tenor of these reports, so filled they were with self-righteousness and panic. What was buried in those reports was that there was never any evidence that tainted food products had ever reached the public. The truth is that the bakery has fully complied with all requests from the health department and has taken steps to ensure they don't happen again.
Nobody wants food that's contaminated.
But anyone who's ever worked around food can tell you that bad things happen in even the cleanest kitchens. There's just no way to prevent certain things from happening. If every health code violation was reported on the 6 o'clock news, the broadcast would be a few hours long and contain nothing else. People deserve clean food. But they also deserve the full context of a news story.
