Tomatoes Update

For those who don't have links to the Salmonella saintpaul outbreak information, here's some links:

CDC information: http://www.cdc.gov/salmonella/saintpaul/

FDA updates: http://www.fda.gov/oc/opacom/hottopics/tomatoes.html

Here's some photos of red roma and round red tomates implicated in the outbreak courtesy of the FDA website. Some sources have been ruled out as contaminated. Check with the FDA website for more information about the current list. From what I've read this happened during a transition between growing seasons in different countries, so it's not clear where the tomatoes came from.
