I don't think that would work w/ meat though. @marcuserektus: I know they’re working on (or may already have) irradiating food that doesn’t get cooked (e.g. spinach. lettuce).

We'd die w/out them. The e-coli that makes us sick is a particular type that lives in a cow's digestive system: E. coli 0157:H7, E. coli 0121 and E. coli 0104:H21. Its shown up in spinach because of the spinach growers vicinity to a cattle farm. I know why and how one gets e-coli poisoning. I've worked in my brothers' restaurants. I had to take that food servers/cooks course, and could work as a cook in a hospital. What I don't understand is how a restaurant that grinds its own beef makes it safe from e-coli. @marcuserektus: Everyone has various e-coli in their digestive system. We’d die w/out them.

Hell yes, but you only live once...what good is it if you don't occasionally flirt death when you eat something? (I'm looking at you, puffer fish; you're going down!) Mmmmm, In ‘n Out.
