FDA Issues Deadly Corrido Alert

FEDERAL OFFICIALS HAVE BACKED OFF of their earlier warning against eating tomatoes, after kicking a massive dent in the tomato industry with the national alert. This week, we’re told, the danger lies in the jalapeño pepper.

The precautionary recall followed a July 21 notice from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration asking consumers to avoid eating raw jalapenos, the new suspect in a salmonella outbreak that has infected 1,220 people in 42 states. The FDA determined tomatoes now available in the domestic market are not associated with the outbreak, and lifted its nationwide tomato warning on July 17.

 

But it’s not just jalapeño peppers themselves.

H.E. Butt Grocery Co. has voluntarily recalled fresh jalapeno peppers, fresh pico de gallo and prepared items containing raw jalapenos from its HEB and Central Market grocery stores.

 

And they’re even talking Cilantro!

Seven weeks created a loss in sales, but also long-term fear among consumers. While officials now suspect jalapeno peppers might have been the culprit, or fresh cilantro, tomatoes received the biggest hit in consumer confidence. Tomatoes still haven’t been totally cleared of suspicion by officials.

 

So that’s tomatoes, jalapeños, fresh Pico de Gallo, and cilantro! I know what you’re thinking. Next week they will tell us that corn flour and chorizo are deadly. But no, it’s already far worse than that.

CDC food safety chief Dr. Robert Rauxe warned the AP of the results of a new test. “We’ve been working hard to isolate the deadly bacteria and we’re positive now that the Salmonella resides solely in the realm of the Corrido. Listening to corridos, and especially while eating pico de gallo, or even burritos, can result in swift hospitalization.”

Okay, so that last quote hasn’t been vetted. And the truth of it is that while the effect is but gravy in this case, (about $100 million dollars worth of gravy so far), tarring Mexico and Mexicans with the Disease brush is (perversely, considering it was the white europeans who brought devastating illness to Mexico) an old, old game.

Lou uses an age-old White Supremacist method of equating the darkies with contagion. Buchanan does it, too, in his book State of Emergency: The Third World Invasion and Conquest of America.  …

But yes, the contagion, the filth, the dirtiness, the disease. Buchanan used the idea to suggest that all the brown people handling your burgers in fast food joints are giving you secret gifts of disease. Dobbs calls Mexicans lepers and stands by his “Facts®,” even when it is clear that his information is entirely false.

 

So what’s it all about this time? Some people, who spend their time understanding food in a much more focused and holistic way than the decrepit and crony-infested FDA does, offer another picture of what agendas are moving behind t he scenes:

NaturalNews) Watching the FDA trip over its own clumsy self while groping for answers on Salmonella is a sad affair. Following the FDA-encouraged destruction of tens of millions of dollars of perfectly good tomatoes, this confused, bewildered agency admits that tomatoes may not have been the problem after all, and it has now set its sights on destroying the peppers industry. Is there no vegetable safe from the destruction of the FDA?

Tomatoes don’t harbor salmonella, by the way. Neither do peppers, onions, cilantro or spinach. Salmonella only festers in factory-farmed animals, folks, and that means the real source of contamination is no doubt some animal factory upstream from the vegetable processing centers. So why isn’t the FDA going after the animal factories that likely caused this whole fiasco? Because making Americans scared of their vegetables is a great way to advance the FDA’s food irradiation agenda which would destroy virtually all the medicinal phytonutrients in plants.

 

 

There it is. One more missing piece in the puzzle. The FDA’s mission to turn live foods into dead foods. 

The USDA, you see, has zero recognition of the difference between living produce and dead produce. To uneducated government bureaucrats, pasteurized or irradiated vegetable juice is identical to fresh, raw, living vegetable juice. They believe this because they’ve never been taught about the phytonutrients, digestive enzymes and life force properties that are found in fresh foods, but that are destroyed through heat or irradiation. This, the USDA is operating out of extreme ignorance when it comes to food and nutrition.

Even a simple leaf of spinach contains hundreds of natural medicines — phytonutrients that help prevent cancer, eye diseases, nervous system disorders, heart disease and much more. Every living vegetable is a powerhouse of disease-fighting medicine: Broccoli prevents cancer, beet greens cleanse the liver, cilantro removes heavy metals, celery prevents cancer, berries prevent heart disease and dark leafy greens help prevent over a dozen serious health conditions while boosting immune function and helping prevent other infections. But when you subject these fruits and vegetables to enough radiation to kill 99.9% of the pathogens that may be hitching a ride, you also destroy many of the phytonutrients responsible for these tremendous health benefits!

This means that while irradiating food may decrease outbreaks of food-borne illnesses, it will have the unintended consequence of increasing the number of people who get sick from other infections (and chronic diseases) due to the fact that their source of natural medicine has been destroyed. For many Americans, you see, salad greens are their one remaining source for phytonutrients. Given their diets of processed foods, junk foods and cooked foods, there are very few opportunities for these consumers to get fresh, phytonutrient-rich foods into their diet. And now the USDA wants to take that away, too, by mandating the irradiation of all fresh produce.

 

However you look at it, it’s becoming clear to more and more people that growing our own food will soon be a necessary component of health and safety, not to mention a general feeling of security. As the food economy is repeatedly hatcheted by a fumbling and stumbling FDA; as plants, slaughterhouses, and restaurants are hit hard due to ICE raids (hate to bury this here, this is breaking news), food preparation and cleanliness is suffering, supply is faltering and at times drying up, and most importantly, our food is no longer viable in many important ways. I mean, how do you feel lately about food? Do you do like I do? Buy the healthiest you can afford and don’t think about the rest? With every new bulletin about the meat/food/vegetable industry hammering into your feeling of growing unease?

If your home doesn’t have a garden, make one. If you don’t have a yard (hello!) then begin thinking on how to foster community gardens, or grow even the most basic vegetables in containers. The time for thoughtless consumption is a thing of the past, more and more the exclusive domain of the elites and those 1%ers who think this world and all its bounty is theirs to pillage endlessly and without conscience or consequence.

Remember the (terrible) movie Waterworld? In that movie, soil was worth more than gold, and a little orange tree worth killing over. I’d not say we’re there…yet.
