Not to make light of the situation but is the E-Coli outbreak in Europe as bad as it is being reported over here? Has everyone stopped eating fresh veggies? They don't seem to be able to pinpoint the culprit but every time they suggest a possibility it costs more farmers more money.
Euro Salad Situation.
There's a place where one's at risk of the outbreak so far, it's called Germany. Victims who have it outside of Germany caught it there.
The German spin-merchants lied through their teeth and said the source was Spain. The Spanish lost $300 million in unsellable greenery and feel miffed because it was untrue. The Germans have backtracked.
It'll go worldwide unless someone invents a new way to eradicate fresh strains of bugs, nobody's succeeded in that so far. The good news is that cooking your food and washing your hands before eating renders it harmless. Eating uncooked food is suicidal anyway, so there's no change really.
We can draw a lesson I expect - boycott anything that started life in Germany, though every self-respecting Englishman's already been doing that since 1914.

So you eat no fresh vegetables at all?

I'm very concerned as the "Women's Soccer World Cup" starts in 2 weeks and my family is headed to Germany along with 26 women's team to include England. Most of the games are totally sold out at this point. I hope they get to the bottom of this our it will be a diet of pretzels and beer at this point the only safe thing to drink and eat.

Oh Great! Now we've actually given the kids of the world an excuse "NOT" to eat their veggies. I can see them all now, crying their little eyes out, afraid to die rather than eat their veggies and DIE!

Veggies are safe, cooked. I you want to be sure, only eat raw veggies from your own garden.
This might be a good time to re-introduce the idea of irradiating food before it gets to the market.
irradiation will kill the bugs, and not harm the food.
A university in the midwest claims to have had some tomatoes that were irradiated and the sat in the fridge for months, and tasted just as fresh as the day they were picked.

I think tomatoes, if they're to do that trick, need their apoptosis gene neutering too. In traditional academic circles such an innovation would have been introduced with a ripple of polite applause. Under Capitalist management it was fanfared as the FlavrSavr™.

Salad wars have broken out, the germans attacked with an opening salvo at spanish cucumbers and got egg all over their faces when it turned out to be german bean sprouts - and you thought they lived on beer and sausage. It's a ploy by the agricorps businesses to destroy the organic food industry that has been eroding their market share and preventing the import of genetically modified rubbish that has been sprayed with chemicals and gender bending meat products by perpetuating the myth that spraying herbicides and insecticides everywhere is healthy. It's a vicious strain of the bug but so long as you wash your veggies you should be OK. Who eats bean sprouts anyway?
It's all a bit silly, there have been massive outbreaks caused by poor meat processing but people didn't stop eating meat it's just the hysteria caused by the reporting and german spanish cucumber bashing.

To put it into context, there's fourteen dead. Around what the US would expect from a single well-aimed tornado.

It's always the irrigation systems and cow **** running into it & free standing water.
most think E-coli comes from your counter top or fruits and veggies.....not true, it comes from the farms.
We have had none as we do not get ours from Germany.

Plenty of fresh veggies being eaten here. Once again, instead of getting fact, Germany came out accusing Spain and the media are doing their usual dramatization of the whole thing creating a bigger crisis than it actually is.

Swine flu, for example. Do you think that ended, or do you think it's simply no longer newsworthy? Is it eradicated or did it cause most of the flu deaths in the US this year?
