I see that all the scaremongering & people losing jobs & (precious) food being wasted has been done so erroneously! What a surprise...

It looks like its been traced to a farm growing beansprouts.

BBC News - E. coli outbreak: German farm in Uelzen 'likely source'

German officials were awaiting results of tests on the farm's produce that would offer more conclusive proof.

The farm has been closed and Germans advised to stop eating beansprouts.

The agriculture minister for Lower Saxony, Gert Lindemann, said: "Further evidence has emerged which points to a plant nursery in Uelzen as the source of the EHEC cases, or at least one of the sources," he said.

Definite proof would depend on test results, but "a connection has been found involving all the main outbreaks".

...Mr Lindemann said the sprouts produced there are grown in temperatures of about 38C, "which is ideal for all bacteria".

When will people learn to do the research first, instead of the knee-jerk reactions!?

Or maybe not beans as the case maybe, all tests so far negative.

Does this mean that when I have too many cucumbers again this year, my neighbours won't run screaming when I try to give them my glut?

I hope I have a glut, I've never managed one before.
