A new congressional investigation has concluded the deadliest recorded outbreak of food-borne illness in U.S. history was caused, in part, by the system intended to prevent it.
Last year, at least 30 deaths were caused by listeriosis linked to cantaloupe from Jensen Farms in Colorado. Before the outbreak, Jensen Farms received a clean bill of health from auditors the company had hired.
Sooo, tell me again why we pay good tax money to support the USDA and the FDA? To hire food inspectors to recommend poor food handling practices to increase production? Classic.
