why would anyone think that this bad produce wouldnt come from Mexico. Its pretty easy to think about if you cant drink the water then why would you eat the produce? I am just glad to see this ordeal is making Wal-Mart buy local put an end to Mexico in our counttry were ever you have a chance too.

A stupid comment ? I vacation in Mexico a few times a year every year. Mexico does nothing good for the US period. We can do everythign right here at home that Mexico thinks they provide us. Mexico is like an imature child that will never grow up and take care of there responsiblities.

Well, well, where was the spinach outbreak from in 2006? It wasn't from mexico. If you remember years back, strawberries from michoacan were selling like crazy,so the usda tied the strawberry to some virus and years later they said sorry we were wrong,but the damage had been done. How many of you know that there are usda inspectors all over mexico? now why is it they don't catch any virusus befor entereing the u.s?
They scared the public acusing the mexican tomato as carrying salmonella yet they found not even one tomatoe with the virus.now they are saying oops we're sorry,but the damage has been done. so what do they do acuse the jalapeño. well guess what there has been no trace of this virus found in mexico. It is an American virus. Americans are lousy and cheating competitors when things don't go your way scare, damage, that causes good results for american producers. In this tomatoe scare the usda has proven to be an incompetent source of detecting viruses. it's like falsely acusing you of murder and after serving 20 years in prison saying oops we're sorry.
