Mexican grown jalapeno has same diseased tainted samonella strain and still FDA can not identify the source and the latest reported out break if samonella poisoning in July 4th?

America is doomed with reported 1251 sick must not be very important and can only wait until someone very important or thier very important child becomes sick in order to get results.

Stop buying and eating any produce from Mexico seems to be the only resolve ordinary Americans can persue at this time. Too bad for not all Mexican produce is diseased but then again no one knows.

How can they not be able to trace where it came from, I mean where did they buy the stuff, then who bought the stuff from them, then who grew it, ridiculous, I think we should halt the importation of any grown foods from somewhere else, especially if there is reported diseases coming from there. Let the farmers here grow the stuff, just dont make any sense.
