As a recent former Canadian lettuce producer it’s laughable to the difference in picking crew standards we had to adhere to compared to 12 muddy low paid Mexicans huddled over a super sanitary looking conveyer and yet they can import and flood Canadian grocery stores while not adhering to Canada GAP food safety standards. Not saying we shouldn’t have high standards but the unfair regulatory/wage/input costs vs American farms will or has obliterated our food security.
For the family 👪, how could doing the right thing go so wrong?
They don't wash them enough, at least ten times.
AWFUL BELL RINGING! So distracting I couldn't hear them talking!
This world wants so badly to destroy itself.
thats because all of us suppose to farm. It's the way we shop groceries and produce is wrong.

Not to make light of their situation but who gets a salad from a pizza shop 😩
We can't trust corporations for food productions.

bro im trying to stay healthy but now i cant buy romaine lettuce

Grow your own greens at home folks. Would you risk your child eating a bad batch of lettuce and getting a permanent disability like the child in this video? I sure the heck won't. Romaine isn't even that hard to grow.
poor little boy cuz of a salad
Cook before you eat.

It's what they do to packed food-chemical spraying to preserve the freshness. Pizza place didn't soak in water their lettuce then gave it a good rinse. They probably just took it out of the cellophane and chopped it up, thinking it was clean. Same thing happens to all pre packed greens.
Other civilizations have been practicing and explaining this to prepare fresh food and eating less cal and less proc seed food but us wants to learn this the hard way. Capitalism huh!
Maybe big business use cow dung to replace synthetic nitrogen to grosscut their expenses since cow dung is high in nitrogen leafy plants need.

Its ironic and sad that a pure leafy green vegetable crop is susceptible to an animal-borne pathogen….you still think there's nothing wrong with the current food system?
Ugghhh…you never wish that illness on anyone. Hopefully we can look at this and say "you know what? Maybe I SHOULD be growing some of my own food?".
To the kid & his loving parents… I'll pray for you… may God give you strength. 🙏
