I had a similar problem with my step mother and her antipasto recipe. I
actually posted my dilemma to this group. You all know the recipe - posted
here, on the net etc - totally not safe, but people keep making it
anyway...........

I had to tell my STEP MOTHER that her recipe wasn't safe and she responded
with 'well I won't give you any..."

.......ok, so that wasn't good enough for me. So I found as much
documentation on the subject as I could find and sent it to her - by email
and in hard copy. And you know what? We never talked about it again, but
she's not making antipasto anymore......

so one would risk a friend or a co worker....imagine what I had to risk.....

not to mention what/who my step mom was risking.......
