FDA Salmonella Warning - Roma Tomatoes

[Guest guest]

I would point out 2 things:

 

1. The underlying problem is animal feces from neighboring farms and/or the

larger ecosystem. Under anything remotely resembling " normal " circumstances,

no such problem would ever occur.

 

2. If you are an established raw fooder, in all likelihood your system would

just process right through any exposure you might encounter, with either no

symptoms are very mild, brief symptoms in the worst case. In other words, if

you are genuinely healthy there is no problem here.

 

Best,

Elchanan

Roma Tomatoes

 

 

There's been a lot in the news about not buying Roma tomatoes because of the

Salmonella scare. I bought organic Romas from Trader Joes last week (the

only store that had Romas for sale that I buy at) and didn't have any

trouble from eating them. They were from Mexico. I bought more for this week

and I'm still not seeing Romas in any of the other stores I shop at.
