"Brackett said the use of manure as a fertilizer for produce typically consumed raw, such as spinach, is not in keeping with good agricultural practices. "It is something we don't want to see," he told a food policy conference."

Wow, you don't freaking say. It's bad to pack food that you eat raw in animal feces. Hmmm, learn something new everyday.

Since I make it a practice not to have any form of vegetable pass my lips, that's not a problem. In fact, were it possible to make a sandwich using something like meat in place of the bread, I'd be one happy camper!
