    There is a sample of two families . . .
    . . . portrayed in the animated short documentary, CLEANLINESS BRINGS HEALTH. The narrator calls one of these groupings the Clean Clan, and refers to the other as the Careless Bunch. Mr. Clean's kin safeguards their food, sleeping areas and hygiene facility against contamination from germ-laden insects and bacterial dust. But the Careless rabble relieve themselves in their farm fields, and then get really sick after eating their food without washing it or their hands, while sloshing it down with field runoff water. This film's producer appears to be crusading against foreign food importation, implying that there's a 50% chance that consuming grub grown outside of the U. S. will result in wide-spread food-borne illness in our American Homeland.
