Safe Tables Our Priority (S.T.O.P.)

Paper Summary:

The paper contends that the organization Safe Tables Our Priority (S.T.O.P.) should receive support from the government because the organization could diminish the number of E. coli cases in the United States. The paper describes how S.T.O.P. is committed to ending the contamination of food that leads to illness and/or death. The paper offers an example of a young boy who suffered a horrific death and calls for S.T.O.P. to receive a grant to prevent such unnecessary illnesses and deaths.

From the Paper:

"The mission of the organization is to put an end to unnecessary illnesses (and deaths in Alex's case) that are caused from food borne pathogens. STOP is committed to ending the contamination of food that leads to illness and/or death when it could be prevented. The organization does not work on other food safety issues like pesticides; however, in the case of Alex, his death was the cause of eating a tainted hamburger. No child should die because he or she has eaten any food contaminated with a food borne illness, and no parent should have to worry that the food they are giving their children is tainted."
