libeay32.dll, ssleay32.dll and php5ts.dll

BBQ Galvanized Steel

So I kept googling and find more scary things about eating off galvanized steel. Damn, at this point, I am scared. Wonder if I should drink a lot of milk to cleanse my body.

I wonder if they use galvanized steel to cook the food. Sometimes I suspect they do and that would lead to zinc poisoning. Although I am not sure if they use galvanized steel or not.
