Whereas I suspect that there are a lot more errors than we would suspect
on the COOKS' parts; some of which can be very problematic. 
In addition to people not being told about a particular ingredient in the
feast, there is always poor food handling, inadequate cooking, etc. etc.
However much we assume that no-one on this list would do such things, we
all know of or even have been at events where this happened.
