American Tomato Growers should be PISSED. The US Gov’t and Mexicans just cost them something like $200 million in wasted product.
It was ridiculous. The FDA went out of its way to not mention where they thought the tainted produce was coming from. Instead, they listed American companies from whom it was safe to buy.
There thats better!
I am too. The health weenies ruined some mighty fine dinners I had planned with some of my FReeper friends.

True, and can't be said often enough. One way or another, you and I are going to pay for it.
I’m not an American tomato grower and I’m really cheesed about all this. This is an example of our government jumping the gun and blaming Americans first so as not to offend the delicate sensibilities of the Mexicans. As always we are just told to bend over and take it.
I’m pissed. I missed my tomatoes.
