So where did the bad ones come from? China? Mexico?

This has a 3rd world type of ring.

Most of the recent cases of Salmonella were in Texas and New Mexico, so I would suspect Mexico.

But a few months ago, cantaloupe from Honduras had Salmonella.

At that time, I think Del Monte was providing retailers with Cantaloupes from Guatamala, for example.

Also, there have been cases of Salmonella with Green Onions in the past 6 months from Mexico.

Well since no news media is announcing where it was grown I would bet my house it was Mexico. This is sick that we live in a society where the media purposely covers up the source of a deadly outbreak in order to be PC. If the tomatos were grown in Illinois or Virginia the states would be plastered all over the headlines.

All this thread is missing is Dane defending the rights of Mexican tomato farmers pooping in the fields therefore contaminating the tomatos...
