Indeed. The worst case of food poisoning I ever had, we managed to trace 
with fairly high confidence to a salad (there were a group of 12 of us; 
8 got sick, and the sick/not-sick division lined up precisely with who 
got soup versus salad as their starter).

Furthering the point about this being a pretty random factor, the only 
time I've had (medically diagnosed) food poisoning outside of the 
country was during the most recent Paris IETF meeting. I certainly 
wouldn't exclude France from future consideration on that basis. I don't 
think we can take anecdote as venue input.
