California produce grower Metz Fresh recalled fresh spinach yesterday after a sample tested positive for salmonella, reviving the food safety concerns from last year, when E. coli-tainted spinach killed three people and sickened over 200.

Food safety keeps making the headlines. Earlier this year, a widespread outbreak of salmonella from peanut butter made more than 600 people sick. Pet food products imported from China were linked to the death of animals.

Who or what’s to blame for the rash of tainted foods? Will you think twice about grabbing a salad for lunch or feeding your children raw vegetables? Have your say…
