Yet another reason to let the cows eat the spinach, then we eat the cows.

Other than E Coli 157 are there other "e. coli" that cause disease? Can't see how spinach would get infected otherwise...maybe cow dung?

"Where was the spinach grown?"No idea, think most of the contamination of fruits, veggies come from south of the border. Something about the water that they grow the stuff in. Didn't Chi, Chi's have a big epidemic of hepititis linked to the same sort of thing last year?
I know it was bad enough that they went bankrupt.

Probably grown anywhere but the good ole U. S. of A.
Take your pick for produce today......Columbia, Peru, Bolivia, South Africa, Australia, Dwarf Planet Pluto.......
Next year I'm growing a victory garden so I know what's on the veggies and who's on the veggies.

Yikes! I luv fresh spinach, added to a nice oil and vinegar salad...
truble with buying spinach is it seems no matter what you do with it, after a day in the fridge, it turns to mush...

Just fry it up with oil, garlic, and some red pepper flakes and serve it alongside your rare steak!
It's those spinach salads that will kill you!

That makes a lot of sense. I was also thinking it had do something with/along the washing/packing process. These produce outbreaks all seem to come with these new packaged veggies (I could be wrong). More handling, special attention to washing.
