CDC - throw away all your Romaine Lettuce - Wrong!

This seems to indicate that the sources of the contaminated lettuce isn't known or who it was shipped it is not known. The solution then is to remove all.

Had a three-pack of romaine, ate the first two over last week, no probs. Thought I'd test fate and enjoyed fish tacos with some of the third head tonight.

a reply to: dug88. Wait...they don't herd them out to the field to do their business on command? I've got this all wrong I guess.

I dont think some of you know the issues on this biosludge stuff. Mike Adams has covered this pretty regularly. Warning... its pretty gross whats going on. Lots of farms having the soil so contaminated that they are being shut down. This might help you out....

My wife told me she's making me a romaine lettuce thanksgiving dinner tomorrow.


Was there something in the news about romaine?

Maybe that's why she's doing it.

*heart*

typical protocal for any fresh produce bought is to soak it in the sink filled with water and a cup of white vinager for 10 minutes. This was suggested by the CDC long long ago. I would at least do that.

I know we all joke about this stuff but getting e-coli is pretty bad.

whats the cause of all this??? I think its the biosludge toxic waste that cities are dumping on the farmers. I spent a lot of time researching this stuff but its so gross I stopped. Just nasty stuff going on because the cities dont want to pay to properly dispose of it. Seems to also go in conjuction with agenda21 from what I learned.

Probably a good Idea to drink some apple cider vinager this holiday if you dont use it for dressing. Maybe take a dropper or two of silver bullet as well.

Norovirus is pretty common now as well in the states. Gee wonder why LOL? Thats no fun either. But its typically not lethal.

Thats good. We all should be. He puts out a lot of solid information.

Just need to expose all our food to ionizing radiation to kill any living organisms on them.

They tried that. People went nuts because their food was "radioactive."

It is stunning to think the USA gets some of its veg from Romania , What with them moaning about climate change and all you would thing they would be growing it indoors with hydroponics and staffed with prisoners to keep the cost down , the uk Tesco flys its chickens in from Asia !

Ya! There sure must be a lot of Romaine lettuce farms in Romania, for them to supply the world like that!

Aren't we silly humans, for flying chickens around in planes?
Maybe it's our way of helping them with evolution?

The boneless chickens find it is much easier than walking.

I wonder what Mike Adams has to say about it.

Bless their sweet hearts: forgoing their skeletonitious advantages, to ply to our consumerist whims.

And bless the Romanians: for their lettuce, (when it doesn't make us have liquid poops).

Ah , can I at Least Keep the Croutons ?

You could throw it away---OR---you could just wash it thoroughly with running water. If you live in a city the water will have chlorine in it. If you don't, put a bit of ionic silver in the wash water.

Has washing vegetables become just too hard for the public?

Washing absolutely will not help, the bacteria is inside the plant cells. Ever do that experiment in school where you take white flowers and put them in food colored water, after a few days the flowers become the color of the water. That is what happened with this lettuce, it has sucked up water/sludge whatever with e coli in it. All the scrubbing in the world will not make it safe.

Yes you should throw out picked romaine, not because of e coli, but because that sounds nasty!

You can probably buy it at a hydroponic store, or they should be able to get it.
