I trust my wife's prepared food because I live with her, I trust my neighbor because I know them well and frequent their house, I trust the restaurant up the hill because I know the owner, have visited its kitchen and am aware of the menu. I do not personally know RHS or whoever prepared the locust. So, my three beat his every day of the week.
