title: Python Flask returning with backslashes to JSON curl request
body: <p>I am getting the results from my mongoDB database and trying to send them as a JSON object through curl:</p>
  
  <pre><code>custos = customerDB.CustomerModel.find()
  
  jsonCusto = []
  for doc in custos:
  temp = json.dumps(doc, default=json_util.default)
  jsonCusto.append(temp)
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I print this before send and get: </p>
  
  <pre><code>'{"firstName": "Joshu", "lastName": "Wak", "creation": {"$date": 1414531609314}, "Cust_ID": 101, "streetNo": "3231", "_id": {"$oid": "54500a19d0f6120a0021c879"}, "email": "lolazo@cvn.com", "streetName": "washingoton"}'
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>but on the curl screen I get: </p>
  
  <pre><code>"{\"firstName\": \"Joshu\", \"lastName\": \"Wak\", \"creation\": {\"$date\": 1414531609314}, \"Cust_ID\": 101, \"streetNo\": \"3231\", \"_id\": {\"$oid\": \"54500a19d0f6120a0021c879\"}, \"email\": \"lolazo@cvn.com\", \"streetName\": \"washingoton\"}
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I tried about 10 combinations and cannot get it right. I would appreciate any help.</p>
  
  <p>Thanks!</p>
