  SPEAKER_00: Oh, you were running in your clothes.
• 1:48
  SPEAKER_01: So I was like, Well, that happened, and then I you know, I was home all day yesterday, and I feel okay today, but I'm still like now the toddler doesn't need the Zofran, so I'm sucking it down.
• 1:59
  SPEAKER_01: And PDLite, I think I'm gonna try and go to work.
• 2:02
  SPEAKER_02: Oh my god.
• 2:03
  SPEAKER_02: This is a risk.
• 2:04
  SPEAKER_02: A risk that I don't know if anybody wants you to take.
• 2:06
  SPEAKER_00: But I want you to take a contractor bag and two pairs of clothes.
• 2:10
  SPEAKER_00: Yes.

  SPEAKER_00: Put a contractor bag right on your phone.
• 2:16
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
• 2:18
  SPEAKER_00: What's in your sack, Natalie?
• 2:20
  SPEAKER_00: Just don't you worry about it.
• 2:21
  SPEAKER_00: Because you had texted you, and I I want to read your text when we were asking, Do you think you have this?
• 2:26
  SPEAKER_00: You said, Oh yeah, we got the parasite.
• 2:28
  SPEAKER_00: I can confirm symptoms are explosive.
• 2:31
  SPEAKER_02: So it's may cause a change of pants.
• 2:34
  SPEAKER_02: Oh, God.
• 2:34
  SPEAKER_02: Oh, you poor thing.
• 2:35
  SPEAKER_02: And then so you didn't actually go to the doctor.
• 2:37
  SPEAKER_02: You're just using the okay, we shouldn't really encourage this, but you're using the medication of your kid.
• 2:42
  SPEAKER_02: But which, I mean, according to the pit, which I just finished yesterday.
• 2:46
  SPEAKER_02: Oh, here we go.
• 2:46
  SPEAKER_02: Big, big no, no.
• 2:47
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah, I know.
• 2:48
  SPEAKER_02: But anyway, big no no.
• 2:50
  SPEAKER_02: But the doctor basically said, take the Zofran and then it's gonna go away eventually.
• 2:56
  SPEAKER_01: Um, yeah, the and the doctor was like, we could do a stool test for it, but I'm like, I can provide that any second you want.
• 3:03
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, like you want one right now?
• 3:04
  SPEAKER_00: You got it.
• 3:05
  SPEAKER_00: Um I'm sorry, I'm not laughing at you.
• 3:09
  SPEAKER_00: It's the situation, it's not you.
• 3:11
  SPEAKER_00: All right, so let me ask this.
• 3:12
  SPEAKER_00: Oh, yeah.
• 3:13
  SPEAKER_00: Did they at any point, and this is important to know because I don't know where the confirmed cases of this parasite are, except for somewhere in Corning on your street.
• 3:23
  SPEAKER_00: But um uh but did they even speculate that it could be this?
• 3:27
  SPEAKER_00: Because this story is beginning to take off on a national level.
• 3:30
  SPEAKER_00: I heard it there this morning, but I the and and I want to say it was something like 11 states confirmed a case of it or something.
• 3:36
  SPEAKER_00: And then you're like Allie said, Taco Bell started its own rumor, uh, which just to me is beyond wow.
• 3:43
  SPEAKER_00: I know that I feel like that wasn't the wisest marketing move.
• 3:46
  SPEAKER_00: But probably not, but anyway, but what do I know?
• 3:48
  SPEAKER_00: Did they even suggest or think or even say in passing, well, you know, there's this thing going around?
• 3:54
  SPEAKER_00: Because I want to make sure the medical community here is thinking about that.
• 3:59
  SPEAKER_00: I'm not saying this is gonna be a pandemic.
• 4:02
  SPEAKER_00: Boy, does COVID sound good right now, though, compared to what you're going through?
• 4:05
  SPEAKER_00: You shut your mouth.
• 4:07
  SPEAKER_00: But uh, you know, I I'm just curious, did they even hint that it could have been?
• 4:12
  SPEAKER_01: She did.
• 4:12
  SPEAKER_01: Yep, the doctor with when we went to the towel for the toddler, she was like, This is what's going around, this is the name of it.
• 4:18
  SPEAKER_01: Okay.
• 4:19
  SPEAKER_01: Um, it comes from like fresh produce, all the things, and we're like, Oh, he's kind of a picky eater.
• 4:24
  SPEAKER_01: Like, where did I like where did he eat fresh produce?
• 4:26
  SPEAKER_00: And I I heard that um washing fresh produce won't even get rid of the parasite.
• 4:31
  SPEAKER_00: So you may not even know you're getting it.
• 4:33
  SPEAKER_02: And I was hogging down cherries last night and blueberries.
• 4:36
  SPEAKER_00: Guess who's crapping their pants in 20 minutes?
• 4:39
  SPEAKER_02: The CDC says they now have learned there has been at least 18 states with these cases, including Illinois, Michigan, New York, and Texas.
• 4:50
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah, go ahead, Scott.
• 4:51
  SPEAKER_02: That's your question.
• 4:51
  SPEAKER_00: Here's what I want to ask Natalie one more time because you're the only person I know uh either A, brave enough to tell us that you're, you know, pooping up the wall.
• 4:59
  SPEAKER_00: Uh or uh or go, do you get any relief?
• 5:02
  SPEAKER_00: Like, you know, sometimes when you're sick and you lay down, you're just like, okay, or do you lay down and it's just constant?
• 5:08
  SPEAKER_00: Because I I mean, just, you know, unfortunately I don't have it right now, but you never know.
• 5:12
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, so I was able to, I mean, I'm able to sleep-ish, but then like you get a pain in your stomach and you're like, oh, what's happening?
• 5:20
  SPEAKER_01: Like, is it is it happening?
• 5:21
  SPEAKER_01: Or is it gonna be a problem?
• 5:23
  SPEAKER_02: Don't test the theory and go right to the bathroom.
• 5:25
  SPEAKER_02: Right.
• 5:26
  SPEAKER_02: Or you like instantly wake up and go, oh my gosh, um, if I crap this bed.
• 5:30
  SPEAKER_02: You know what you gotta do?
• 5:31
  SPEAKER_02: You gotta get well, you know what?
• 5:33
  SPEAKER_02: Contractor bags.
• 5:34
  SPEAKER_02: Contractor bags on the bed.
• 5:36
  SPEAKER_02: Okay, one other thing, really quick, too.
• 5:38
  SPEAKER_02: Symptoms usually occur within two to fourteen days after ingestion, and they're calling it a type of food poisoning.
• 5:44
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah, I guess so.
• 5:45
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah, I would equate it right to food poisoning.
• 5:49
  SPEAKER_02: Here's some things to avoid.
• 5:51
  SPEAKER_02: This uh and this is actually the serious side of things.
• 5:53
  SPEAKER_02: Uh first they say wash your hands, of course.
• 5:56
  SPEAKER_00: Thoroughly wash produce, but you know, Scott just said, uh I heard this morning it it you can s it may not get it all.
• 6:03
  SPEAKER_02: But some foods to avoid for right now, bagged salad mixes, fresh cilantro, oh great.
• 6:08
  SPEAKER_00: I brought a bag salad mix for lunch today.
• 6:11
  SPEAKER_00: Hey, I'll be right there with you, Natalie, by one o'clock today, crapping up the walls.
• 6:15
  SPEAKER_02: Get a contractor bag.
• 6:16
  SPEAKER_02: Raspberries, snow peas, and green onions.
• 6:19
  SPEAKER_02: Scallions, scallions.
• 6:20
  SPEAKER_00: I ate those last night.
• 6:23
  SPEAKER_01: Okay, yeah.
• 6:24
  SPEAKER_01: I mean, we were doing salads, like my husband and I were doing, he was doing like a steak salad.
• 6:28
  SPEAKER_01: I was doing my salad, so it could definitely have been a salad type thing.
• 6:33
  SPEAKER_01: And it could be that the kit, yeah, the toddler probably has something completely different because uh everybody at daycare is like a you know, everybody's sick all the damn time, right?
• 6:42
  SPEAKER_00: Did you by chance eat the Taylor Farms Asian cashew chopped kit?
• 6:46
  SPEAKER_00: Because that's what I'm holding right now.
• 6:47
  SPEAKER_02: That one's so good.
• 6:48
  SPEAKER_02: I love that one.
• 6:49
  SPEAKER_02: The maple baby bacon bourbon Taylor Farms one is my favorite.
• 6:53
  SPEAKER_00: Okay, we'll get to your favorites in a minute.
• 6:55
  SPEAKER_00: I want to know if she ate this and crabbed her pants.
• 6:57
  SPEAKER_00: Do I need to immediately do it?
• 6:59
  SPEAKER_00: Okay, wasn't that one?
