About a year ago I received a letter stating I had purchased some Castelberry CattleDrive Chili at Costco that may have had botulin toxin in it.   Shortly before receiving this letter I had a migraine headache with bright spots in my field of vision.  This only happens when I get sick or if I eat something bad.  Well turns out after I recovered in a day there were no further flu like symptoms.

I wrote them a letter asking them to compensate me.  I did this more probably to inform them than I did in expectation of actually getting any money.

Now a year later I thought it was a one time deal.  I figured that they would have their ship in shape.  The price of the chili is about a buck a can so its hard to ignore.  Its not such a good deal when you factor in the botulin toxin.   Shortly after eating this chili again I got a repeat of last years symtoms.

Thus I council staying away from the CattleDrive Chili.  My opinion is there is something amiss!
