[nutritionfacts.org] "When you hear of people getting infected with a stomach bug from something like spinach, it’s important to realize that the pathogen didn’t originate from the spinach. Intestinal bugs come from intestines. Greens don’t have guts; plants don’t @#$%&. So the Salmonella in alfalfa sprout seeds (Don’t Eat Raw Alfalfa Sprouts) likely came from manure run-off or contaminated irrigation water. But this pesticide angle adds a whole new route for fecal pathogens to pollute produce. Broccoli Sprouts are safer, and organic sprouts may therefore be safer still. Organic foods may also be healthier (see Cancer Fighting Berries) and don’t carry the potential chemical hazards associated with pesticides. See my videos:" Re: fecal virus in non organic produce

Date: February 05, 2014 03:03PM There have been many cases of contamination of ORGANIC produce. Yes, plants don't have guts so they somehow got on the plants by an animal. How would conventional sprouts come in contact with run-off? SOrry, but I am a proud conspiracy theorist. I think "they" just went around and threw e-coli, salmonella and listeria on plant foods.
