Well, Spanish cucumber is not guilty, but German beansprouts are. Germans owe Spaniards compensation for damage from false accusation.

Organic farm, as in manure fertilizer.

They were wrong on the cucumbers. Why believe them now?
I will wait.

Must be a small hospital.

Horse, cattle, sheep, goat and chicken manure can be used as fertilizer AFTER being composted for a year. Composting so as to raise the temperature high enough to kill E.coli is important when it is used to grow edibles.
There have been a number of articles concerning this in Hobby Farms magazine.

Sprouts are grown in water, not manure. Had to be contaminated water or a contaminated worker, perhaps a “guest worker.”
Also it must have been a very large farm or sprout factory.

I’m no scientist, though I do play one on the intarwebs sometimes. E. coli comes from human poop, I think that much is a given.
I’m cool with organic farming, but you gotta compost that stuff you are putting on your crops. Properly done, the compost gets hot enough to kill bad germs from what I have heard. But using human offal in your compost will lead to no good. Old leaves, vegetables, various table scraps are OK, but human poops is a no-no.
These “organic farmers” need to study Organic Composting 101 so they don’t have their own poops poisoning their people. And don’t have diseased peeps pooping on your crops. Unless, of course, you are shipping it to the “organic” garden at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave.

Aren't sprouts what you feed to food?

Sprouts are grown from beans. Beans plants are grown in the soil.
Most bean plants are fertilized some way.

I thought e. coli came from any kind of poop? Cow poop too?
