wow the risk of diarrhea from raw produce is 2-4x higher than it was last summer, better destroy all the leafy greens in the country.

God forbid they get the option if they want to make the decision for themselves whether that's use normally because they aren't near any outbreaks or just figure out some dishes where they can cook the lettuce. No, apparently it would be better to divert tens of thousands of pounds of produce to landfill because of skittish consumers.

Its a retirement home. The people eating it don't make the decision for themselves. The decision is made by a commercial enterprise with a legal obligation to its investors to minimize costs.

It's free and the alternative is waste. Just add it to a fucking soup or a stir fry or something.

Never complain about a grocery story throwing away food again.

Apparently lettuce soup is a thing, but what temperature x time does the parasite and its eggs need to die?

Tomato is fine, it can boil at high pressures for hours and it comes out great. But lettuce is lettuce.
