e.coli infections can manifest in as little as an hour. The amount of bacteria ingested and the overall health of the patient are factors in how fast the infection spreads. A poster in the menu thread stated she was hospitalized for 2 days after being taken off her flight where she became ill. She believes it was the salad she ate on board. These reports seem to indicate she might be right and now we have a poster in this thread who says LH has removed salads from meal service.
