A Lettuce Recall
This is a sad report for those of us who love green. Aside from a recent spinach recall, there is a new one involving lettuce here in the US. The Nunes Company has found E Coli in its irrigation system. While clearly bad for Nunes, this is not a good sign for the US’s produce hub, California. I suspect growers and food retailers are going to really feel the pinch as the public loses faith in greens. Let’s hope this turns around soon. The first story I found is here, and I suspect there will much more over the next 24 hours.
Update — news reports this morning say that while the irrigation water was tainted, the greens themselves were not infected with E.Coli
