the bags wash them regularly. the same study found bacteria in 99-percent of bags tested - including e-coli - an indicator of fecal contamination.in fact, researchers found that the contamination cycle often begins right as shoppers place their reusable bag in the shopping cart - a spot notorious for germs.we asked local shoppers how often they wash their bags - or even *if they do."hmmmm.....rarely." "i...uh...""uh...i don't." (quick nats at lab) cbs 2 went to the university of iowa state hygenic laboratory - where all sorts of germs are handled - studied - and reported on.we wanted to dig deeper to find out exactly *what could be in reusable bags. we gave nancy hall three samples - one brand new - one used occassionaly -

coliform bacteria, and ecoli, and staph testing."hall's team looked at our samples and the findings were downright nasty! here they are. (shot of sample bubbles)the more yellow you see - the dirtier the bag.the result?both the new and rarely used bags scored less than 40 units for total coliform bacteria. but the dirty one? 20-thousand!hall says that's a lot."the higher the level of coliform, the higher the risk that the other pathogens that make you sick could be there." standup/karen "the problem with the bags is cross contamination. and the worst offender is something you may have in your refrigerator right now."(shot of raw chicken)raw meat juices leaking onto a reusable bag is the number one way that dangerous microbes spread.if it's placed with produce - the risk goes up since most of us barely rinse our fruit."we don't want any raw meat juices

saturday -- and with a tradition of strong playmakers on defense... the hawkeyes won't be overlooking the boilermakers "they hung fifty-five on nebraska because they won the turnover battle. and usually when you're talking about purdue's strength.. on defense ..you look at their defensive ends first because they really get up field. and then their linebackers have always been aggressive ... so iowa will be aware of that. i just think with the hawkeyes offensive line playing so well right now that purdue can throw anything at the hawks and they're gonna be able to handle it." jake arrieta, your 2015 nl cy young award winner. ... gave his friends heat for getting champagne in his eyes during this post-announcement celebration... and later giving kudos to the other cubs awards winners this offseason. thank you and congratulations to our manager joe maddon. really excited watching him and kris win those awards. and to be a part of that with those guys and to do what we did as an organization this year is really incredibly
