WASH YOUR PRODUCE!!

I know it's scary- http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20110606/ap_on_he_me/eu_contaminated_vegetables_europe

I believe one must look at the dangers of antibiotic resistant strains of bacteria in general, before we go around pointing the finger at organic farmers. The over use of antibiotics is a major contributor towards the rise of some of these "super" strains. Please don't take my word for it...... do your research.

In general, it is a safe practice to wash all produce at home before consumption. As always, know your farmer and know your food.
