The hoax i chose is about flesh eating bacteria on bananas out of Costa Rica.  
Here is the link: http://hoaxbusters.ciac.org/HBUrbanMyths.shtml#bananas

Yeah it sounds scary.. but if you think about it, if the flesh eating bacteria 
is "grafted" to the skin, it shouldnt be in the fruit.  You would be fine if 
you didnt eat the skin.  Plus the bacteria normally resides in the human body, 
and is passed person to person.
Both the CDC and the FDA have both said this is a hoax.
