Okay, so we've always known that chicken carries e-coli, then it was spinach, then some beef, then carrot juice, and now lettuce???

Chicken carries salmonella, commercially ground beef contains E-Coli. I've started grinding my own beef to avoid the e.coli.

Apparently some spinach and lettuce fields have been exposed to something that infected them, whether it was on the farm or during packaging.
