Good old viruses!

I'm not talking about the string of colds/the flu going around...I'm talking about something a tad bit more serious.

When purchasing frozen raspberries - please check the bag to see where they are from.  If they are from Finland - this doesn't apply to you.  (The ones from Finland are very clean and more expensive).
There has been some issues with the raspberries from elsewhere (yes even the frozen ones) because they contain the Listeria bacteria and there have been cases of the Noro Virus!
So! If you want to still eat them - you can.
Just they must be cooked at a minimum of 90*C for a minimum of 2 minutes.

I happened to be shopping with a friend of mine when I was buying frozen berries and I kept ignoring the note that was printed and taped to the freezer door....and of course it's not in English - so another reason why I ignored it!
