The bigger TIL here is that the US has several orders of magnitude higher incidence of food-borne illness than any other developed nation. It isn't even close.

In part because of how much we eat fast food, and how many of those fast food locations have extremely gross soda machines (think specifically the part that stores ice).

The easiest way to avoid food poisoning while eating out is to avoid ice, cilantro, lettuce, and mayonnaise. It's not a guarantee but your odds get better.
