Please explain why it was funny - I could do with a good laugh!

If you fell off your seat had you already eaten some of it?

Thanks for the link, CountessFosco.

It is quite frightening.

I have sent the link to my Australian relatives as a warning.
A lot of people might eat raw spinach in salad at this time of year.

Nine people have needed medical care after eating the Riviera Farms baby spinach from Costco

What is remotely funny about people needing medical care after eating toxic food?
And as for falling off your chair. ….
No comment.

I'm another who can't see anything remotely funny in people being poisoned and suffering. Maybe think before posting as that is just weird. 😟

weird humour

Toxic spinach funny? Okay .....

CountessFosco Fri 16-Dec-22 13:35:57

The headline - it sounds frankly ridiculous. No offence intended.

Perhaps you can explain what you found funny.

Not funny at all, for those who experienced it.

You wouldn't think it so funny if it was happening to you CountessFosco.
My son once had visual hallucinations with a high temperature. It was scary.

Just as well no one was seriously hurt, from the affects.
