Default Lesley is a retard

Lesley found a few news articles that mention Natural Selection
Foods'/Earthbound Farms' (same company) claim that organic produce isn't
involved in the current E coli outbreak. The company's own press
release, though, says:
This does not mean that organic products have been cleared.

Indeed, the FDA immediately sought to correct the erroneous news stories
by issuing their own release stating in the clearest terms that "nothing
has been ruled out."

NPR - All Things Considered, September 18, 2006 -- The California
produce company that's been linked to a widening nationwide E. coli
outbreak is at odds with the Food and Drug Administration over what's
causing the illness. Natural Selection Foods said Monday that its
organic spinach has been cleared as the source of outbreak. But
government health inspectors disputed the company's claim and said
nothing has been ruled out.

Both the FDA and the company involved have not ruled out organic produce
as the culprit:

This does not mean that organic products have been cleared.
-- Natural Selection/Earthbound Farms press release

"You can get E. coli contamination with organic products," Dr. David
Acheson, director of Food Safety and Security at the FDA's Center for
Food Safety and Applied Nutrition, said during a teleconference
Wednesday. "AT THIS POINT WE HAVE NOT RULED IN OR OUT ORGANIC
SPINACH. We're not at the point of saying it's one or the other."

ALL of the manufacturing codes from packages that infected people
have so far been from NON-organic spinach. Subject line corrected.

'Natural Selection has recalled 34 brands of fresh spinach products,
distributed throughout the United States as well as to Canada and
Mexico. The company said the manufacturing codes turned over to
health officials from packages of spinach that had infected patients
all were from non-organic spinach. The company packages both
organic and conventionally grown spinach in separate areas at its
San Juan Bautista, Calif., plant.'

Does it mean that NON-organic spinach is implicated? O' woe is you!

> -- Natural Selection/Earthbound Farms press release


'... the manufacturing codes turned over to health officials from packages
of spinach that had infected patients *ALL* were from non-organic spinach.
The company packages both organic and conventionally grown spinach in
separate areas at its San Juan Bautista, Calif., plant.'

It means neither is off the hook:

This does not mean that organic products have been cleared.
-- Natural Selection/Earthbound Farms press release
http://www.ebfarm.com/press/SpinachUpdates/

This is in agreement with the FDA position that organic produce has NOT
been cleared yet:

"You can get E. coli contamination with organic products," Dr. David
Acheson, director of Food Safety and Security at the FDA's Center for
Food Safety and Applied Nutrition, said during a teleconference
Wednesday. "AT THIS POINT WE HAVE NOT RULED IN OR OUT ORGANIC
SPINACH. We're not at the point of saying it's one or the other."

I accept the statements of both the supplier and the FDA. Lesley rejects
them both.

Lesley is a lying and malnourished retard with poor reading
comprehension. QED.
