This is so weird. I understand how it happened. I've just never heard of anything like this with what is essentially an air freshener.

Just a few years ago there was either scented candles or plug in scent that killed some people, same kind of thing. It was random deaths around the country and someone figured out it was a particular product sold, I believe, at Walmart. Actually it might have been candle-heated potpourri.

Dude. Spinach killed people due to a bacterial outbreak. Everything can kill you.

I remember that one, but I especially remember the romaine lettuce ones. I was robbed of more than one delicious Caesar salad during those dark days.

I mean - I have had cholera. I'm pretty sure the fish I ate in Haiti just south of the UN camp where the outbreak started probably wouldn't do much for Popeye.
