Guess I'll have to pass up on the salad & have a BLT for lunch instead. For "health" reasons, ya know...

In Germany,when I was stationed there years ago, we had to be extremely careful not to eat the veggies off base because of hepatitis. This was caused by using human excrement for fertilizer. I wonder if our wondeful ILLLEGAL aliens are pooping in our lettuce fields and passing on this wonderful disease to CA residents.

Hey, but at least is doesn't cost you the $5 per head that it would if the illegal aliens weren't here to pick it!
The only trade-off is you have to eat fruits and veggies covered with their Hepatitis-ridden urine!

In this country I don't believe that human waste is allowed to be used as fertilizer, but if the price is right we will eat anybody elses that is grown on it.
To: BurbankKarl
We always wash our lettuce. But that means rinsing it in cold water and draining it, not washing it with warm water and soap.
I'm not insure that washing infected lettuce would be enough. And although so far this outbreak appears to be restricted to California, California lettuce is shipped all over the country.
I think they'd better trace down the source.
