Good thing I eats me spinach canned! Arggghh!
Bump
I have been eating frozen,cause I love me Creamed Spinich,even though my wife has Mini Maxed it to nothing.....
This is why I love Free Republic - thank you for posting the article. I've just tossed out the bag of fresh spinach sitting in my fridge here in CT, one of the affected states. I never would have seen this in the MSM.
Note to file:
1.Continue refusing to eat spinach, raw, boiled, steamed, broiled, fricaseed, stewed, in a casserole, chilled, or as a garnish.
2.Continue enjoying a juicy ribeye, minus spinach on the plate.
3.Match wine with beef, refuse any wine that a sommelier would recommend for spinach.

Would it kiil the E.coli if the spinach were washed in a water-bleach solution?
What brand?
Thanks for the post, we eat steamed spinach weekly and this turns my stomach.
Fortunately we were poor this week and I ate alot of pasta,very little veggies.
"Seven other states, including Connecticut, Idaho, Indiana, Michigan, New Mexico, Oregon and Utah, have also been hit by the outbreak."
YIKES!
I just cooked 20 oz of fresh bagged spinach a few days ago. I live in Washington State. I see my state is not on the list, and I assume e-coli would hit you pretty fast so I guess we are safe in this household.
Oh, great. I had a big ol' spinach salad for lunch yesterday. I don't seem to be dead yet, luckily. But I think I'll throw out the rest of the bag.
Vegan terrorism???
One KNOWN at this point. Wash salad greens with water and a chlorine bleach solution. Rinse with fresh, clean water. http://www.clorox.com/health_food_borne.php
The irony is that people only eat spinach because they think it is going to help them to live longer. Nobody actually likes the taste of that stuff, do they?
So sad. Boy, I am really glad I have my own vegetable garden.
About seven years ago, give or take, there was an outbreak related to straweberries. When all was said and done, they found out that the strawberries came from Mexico, and they were using water with human waste in it to irrigate the strawberries.
I have no idea where this spinach came from. It's probably a U.S. product, but who knows.
I knew it. The terrorist facist are trying to kill Popeye!
Damn! I just planted some spinach a week ago. If I let it mature, it will become fresh bagged spinach.
should I quit watering it or dig it up and kill it?
Hmmm, I cook mine in olive oil with Feta cheese......does cooking kill the virus?
Every 5-year-old in the country is celebrating this news.
