Occasionally I dabble.

You try.

Speaker A:

You try it out.

Speaker A:

All right, Chris.

Speaker A:

,:

Speaker A:

And the ongoing investigation suggests lettuce or salad greens may be the source.

Speaker A:

Chris, have you curbed your fresh veg and produce intake at all in recent weeks in light of the news?

Speaker B:

So maybe the lettuce gets an extra rinse.

Speaker B:

But the outbreak concerns me a little less than it probably should.

Never.

Not in your household.

Speaker A:

All right.

Speaker A:

Shelley, what's your pick for the best Americana food to eat at a ballpark?

Speaker C:

Well, this is in Philly, so hopefully they have a cheesesteak around.

Speaker C:

You know, you can't get much more American than a Philly cheesesteak.

Speaker C:

That's right.

Speaker A:

Great answer.

Speaker A:

I was.

Speaker A:

I couldn't get my head off the hot dog.

Speaker A:

I was like, where are you gonna go with this one?
