FDA expands warning to cover all fresh spinach-scary stuff - Janis/Lynn

[Guest guest]

Dear Janis & Lynn,

 

Thanks for airing your opinions.

I am touched by the serious nature in this matter.

I am also shocked at this news regarding E-Coli contamination of spinach.

 

If there is such an outbreak in UK, it is the responsibility of our Health

Minister.

I don't understand why this matter is allowed to continue especially when it

matters most

and human health is affected.

I pray and hope this matter is resolve quickly and surely.

 

However, I grow my own spinach and it takes 12-16 weeks for it to mature.

I use rain water, I collected in my 200 litre water-butt, parked next to my

greenhouse.

I mulched the soil in case of hot days, so less water usage.

 

People who practice unclean method of cultivation should be stop.

 

 

Anything I can do here in UK that can help you guys out there, please...holler.

 

 

 

Best Wishes,

Wee
