One of the biggest problem with modern grains is that they arenât the same as they used to be a few hundred years agoâ¦ or even a few decades ago! And grains consumed in the U.S. arenât the same as the grains eaten in other countriesâ¦ especially when it comes to wheat. A Couple Hundred Years Agoâ¦.
1 Bacillus cereus Bacillus cereus is a spore forming bacterium that produces toxins that cause vomiting or diarrhoea. Symptoms are generally mild and short-lived (up to 24 hours).B. cereus is commonly found in the environment (e.g. soil) as well as a variety of foods. Spores are able to survive harsh environments including normal cooking temperatures.Description of the organism B. cereus is a Gram-positive, motile (flagellated), spore-forming, rod shaped bacterium that belongs to the Bacillus genus.pores are able to survive harsh environments including normal cooking temperatures.

In addition, Bacillus cereus is an opportunistic human pathogen and is occasionally associated with infections, causing periodontal diseases and other more serious infections [5]. Immunocompromised patients are susceptible to bacteremia, endocarditis, meningitis, pneumonia, and endophthalmitis [6].s a soil bacterium, B. cereus can spread easily to many types of foods such as plants, eggs, meat, and dairy products, and is known for causing 2-5 % of food-borne intoxications due to its secretion of emetic toxins and enterotoxins [4].
