But Without Enrichment, We'd Have Bland English Food, Right?

Kebab shop bosses have been ordered to pay over £10,000 after more than 50 customers were poisoned at their takeaway shop. Eleven customers - including an 11-year-old boy - were hospitalised after the contaminated kebab outbreak. Bosses Sami Abdullah, 46, and Hassan Saritag, 38, ran the Marmaris Kebab House in Abergavenny, South Wales, where dozens of diners fell ill.

I have never eaten a kebab of this type, and I never will. But it seems it wasn't the meat that was the issue, unappetising as it always seems, but the salad! 

Yes, I wasn't expecting that either, Reader.... 

The precise source of the outbreak could not be determined, but Newport Magistrates' Court heard that it was associated with a failure to separate washed and unwashed vegetables while preparing coleslaw. Takeaway director Abdullah and business partner Saritag both previously pleaded guilty to placing unsafe food on the market, failing to put in place food safety procedures, and failing to register new owners at the business.

Coleslaw! And it wasn't just British hygiene regulations they scorned, it was other business legislation too:

Scott Tuppen, defending Abdullah, said he had a long history working in restaurants with no previous hygiene issue. 'Mr Abdullah offers his deepest apologies to those affected and in particular those who suffered permanently,' he added. The kebab business was at some point handed over to Abdullah - but it was not registered.The court heard that they both accepted the suggestion to close the business after it was raised by the council.

Before the council stepped in and closed it for them? 

Judge Toms said Abdullah and Saritag have no previous convictions, she had been told that they are 'remorseful' and have co-operated. She added: 'Penalties you will face will be financial but I also appreciate you lost your good character and good names.'

So the judge just goes by what she's told? She doesn't actually judge whether they are remorseful?
