    probably coming from the same farms that have it. the e.coli strain is most likely O15H7 strain, which is the deadly strain. apparently it comes from cattle, goats,eetc.

  The FDA won’t even know when the next one happens. There won’t be any investigation, whether evidence remains or not.

  So basically deny until it’s too late and then do nothing - just like they did with COVID.

  So glad the US is pressuring other countries to lower their import standards to reduce the trade deficit. I’m sure the EU will be clamoring for American romaine lettuce now.
