Let's not forget salmonella...
I wrote the other day about our inability to feed ourselves.... well I was just reminded by NBC news this morning that tomatoes were infected with salmonella, and this falls months after spinach was infected with e. coli. So not only can't we feed ourselves properly, but our veggies are even full of bacteria and viruses so what food we do produce here is dangerous and unhealthy. Our FDA can't even figure out where the viruses originated. They aren't even sure if the salmonella (also known the virus you get from chicken and eggs) originated with tomatoes. I mean damn. We are running out of healthy and safe food. I just don't know what to do anymore.
