For those of you who have been watching the news there is a nationwide outbreak of salmonella poisoning.
Salmonella comes from one place only.. fecal matter.
Regardless of what the media tells the public. American produce have stamps on the boxes. Just by looking at the stamp on a flat of tomatoes will tell you not only where it was grown but on what day it was harvested hell it will even indicate which field.
If the product was grown in the U.S. they can and should be able to isolate it quickly.
On the other hand Mexico does not use the same barcode stamping on crates/flats and Mexico uses raw sewage water for farming.
This doesn't rule out products sold in the U.S. entirely from being a source of salmonella. When I lived in Florida, I lived near Imokalee which is practically a third world country. Farm workers sleep and do there business in the fields.
No car, No roof. Hell even the houses had dirt floors.
All I have to say is God I hope Obama gets our nation back on the right path.
30 years ago the FDA did over 50,000 inspections a year. Today less then 10,000 inspection happen a year. And there is almost no inspection of food products that are imported.
