<<heard the  same thing at the March of Dimes Conference last month in
Chicago in a  presentation by Karin Cadwell and Cindy Turner-Maffei.  I just
checked  my syllabus and can't find my notes but I don't think they gave
reference to  any studies or case reports.  I believe they mentioned a
greater danger  when nipple damage was present.>>

I'd love to see  documentation about the number of women that have been 
infected with listeria  from using cabbage for engorgement.  I've heard this too -- 
have never seen  even a case report.  Of course, that doesn't mean there 
isn't one, but it  would be nice to see it before everyone jumps on the hysteria 
"no cabbage"  bandwagon.  Perhaps this is theoretical and not  actual???
