Grow Your Own Spinach

Has anyone heard about the e-coli outbreak related to spinach? I just found out about it today. No wonder people were commenting to me about having spinach in our salads. We don't, by the way. I guess one person already died from it, and over 100 through the nation are sick. I hope you grow your own spinach.

I had to throw away the bag in my fridge. (actually 1/2 bag) I used some in a veggie/pasta dish a week ago. It was cooked with other veggies and garlic and mixed with pasta. I don't think my spinach was infected with it, but I didn't dare eat any of it raw after what I was hearing.

Wow! I just posted and already a reader! This must be a popular place!

I did read that cooking thoroughly does kill e-coli. But better safe than sorry.

No, that's just aunt rachel she always does that. She did it twice to mom. (see if you can find the two. It should be easy because the comments about it on both of them.)
