Celebrate deregulation!

That's why you shouldn't eat veggies. Long live meat!

I would grow my own veggies on my balcony if I got any sun.

What about your roof?

That's funny.

I try to grow my own. I use organic farming practices. Unfortunatly, that doesn't work well in our tight packed landscaped housing tracts. So most of my spinach and leafy greens got chewed up by little green catipillars and grass hoppers. I tried the organic vegitable spray (perenthians), but it didn't do a bit of good.

And I've had samenella. Got it from a salad bar at Sizzler. Comes from the feces of farm workers that take a dump and don't wash. Nearly killed my little daugter (This was about 15 years ago). I think I'd rather eat the catipillar infested leaves, thank you very much.

I'm sorry your daughter got ill, but, cows on grain diets are the likely cause of e. coli getting into your salad. One would think that cow manure would be a benefit to your local organic farmer. This would be true if cows, which are grass eaters, were only fed hay. Cows digest hay easily without creating acid-resistant e. coli. The human digestive system dispatches this form of e. coli handily. Cows do not digest grain easily, creating acid-resistant e.coli in the process. Run-off from grain-fed cattle farms into your salad grower's land is the likely culprit.
