No Raw Food Here

I just read an article about Salmonella poisoning in the Southwest--40 reported illnesses linked to raw tomatoes.

Tomatoes.

Buddy eats those all the time.

But even though we're not in the at-risk area, I'm throwing out the ones we have.

I can't forget the toddler who died after his mom gave him raw spinach in that outbreak a few years ago. It's just horrible that kids aren't necessarily safe when they eat raw fruits and vegetables.

I think we're doing cooked everything from now on, until they are at least past the stage of possibly succumbing to Salmonella.

Do you think I can trust the ones in my backyard?
