Summary
An E. coli outbreak linked to bagged organic carrots from Grimmway Farms has infected 39 people across 18 states, with 15 hospitalized and one death reported.
The recalled carrots, sold under brands like Trader Joe’s, Wegmans, and 365, are no longer in stores, but the CDC urges consumers to check for and discard any remaining stock.
E. coli infections, which cause severe stomach cramps, bloody diarrhea, and vomiting, can be life-threatening for vulnerable groups.
Recent outbreaks have also been tied to onions, lettuce, and walnuts.
States could create their own FDA when the federal government stop doing their job.
Could they though? From the looks of things the next Trump term is going to be Calvinball where only oligarchs get to make rules. If it cuts into the bottom line of some Trump crony, would it really be allowed?
The federal government isn’t omnipotent, they’d have to send federal agent to physically stop the state from enforcing their own laws. With all the mass deportation trumps planning, I doubt they have enough manpower.
