What does everyone think about the E-Coli outbreak ? I'll never buy bagged veggies again.

The sad thing is that the only way to buy fresh spinach is in bags most of the time
It's pretty hard to find around here any other way, except frozen which is yucky, imo

Bagged salads are so convenient but I guess they're risky now too

Foxy Lady: I would think it was more of a risk to buy un bagged vegs because lots of people go to the toilet and never wash their hands.

Mousetrap: It's a risk know matter what whether bagged,frozen or fresh.We also have some cases in NY the news said today.I always ran and picked up bags of lettuce not anymore.Last i checked on the news there was 94 cases of E-Coli.
