lol nah.
Could be any of the following...
1) Food producers are actually producing more dangerous food.
2) With the increase in consumption, the number of cases was bound to go up, even if the ratio stays the same.
3) The media is just reporting more of it.
4) We are importing more Chinese foods (where quality control is a huge problem).
5) A combination of all of the above. |
