Should I click on the link or remain ignorant? Ignorance is bliss or what about that which doesn't kill me makes me stronger?

Cool! I swear these people have nothing else better to do. People have been drinking water with a slice of lemon for who knows how long. Next time I'll ask for two or three slices!

"Face value" is all I need to make me think twice about dropping a lemon wedge in my drink. I realize that the source of the microbes is still in question but what's not being questioned is the fact that they exist on the lemons in the first place.

Call me silly but the words "fecal" and "drink" are not to be used in the same context in my book...

I agree,

But in the show MythBusters they did the same type of study on tooth brushes and found fecal matter on them, all of them, even the control ones. The control brushes were brand new, were opened and tested. They all had "fecal" matter on them.

That's right...I forgot about those...

Beer is a magic nectar from the gods. No harm can ever come from drinking it.

Bottoms up, with the limes!
