Thanks goodness. The federal government has lifted it's warning against eating tomatoes. The epidemic of salmonella infections has eased. I'm not making light of salmonella infections. It's a serious, even life threatening disease. Tomatoes or possibly peppers were suspect. Now, they say, it is safe for us to eat tomatoes and probably those hot peppers. The directive states only the elderly and sick should avoid the peppers. Is this really a problem? Do you know any sick people who are consuming jalapenos? The frail elderly I know avoid most spicy food. Not big consumers of hot peppers. You would think the salmonella themselves would have trouble living on that food. They didn't mention if it was safe to feed peppers to babies. I would be careful about using this product anyway.
