"Yes, fresh veggies are good for you. These days, however, it seems they can also paralyze or kill you." That's from the author of this article from CBC in Canada. The piece plows familiar ground, talking about recent food safety outbreaks, citing expert Doug Powell, scientific director of the Food Safety Network at K-State. "You are only as good as your worst grower," Powell said. We are at the point that either buyers or the government need to create barriers to deal with that "worst grower."
