That bacon could give you a staph infection

Yessirree! We now have MSRA-resistant hogs.

And since, as things like swine flu, pig heart valve transplants and such suggest, the swine-human interspecies barrier is so low, I’m sure you can ingest MSRA staph with your bacon and eggs.

It seems at least three people already have in Great Britain.
