E-coli on Romaine Lettuce

That's in the news today! E-coli contamination with romaine lettuce.
Simple answer to that.  Know where your Romaine lettuce is coming from and avoid buying from the batches out of ...23 States!!! The contamination supposedly has already spread to restaurants and supermarkets lettuce.  The outbreak seems quite serious.  But, where are those contaminated batches? Are they in your local area?  Well, I don't know where you live.  That leads me to the better answer.

The better answer: grow your own vegetables.  The salad we ate yesterday had Romaine Lettuce and radishes from our garden.  They had a good taste and they were as organic as you can get.  I smiled when I heard the news about e-coli and romaine lettuce because I know where my lettuce is coming from.  Avoid the contamination by growing your own.

If you were looking for some scientific remedies to e-coli  and you end up here, then I'm sorry.  This blog is about gardening and we will be putting some great tips on gardening shortly.
