About: Cantaloupe illnesses and deaths expected to rise

People are saying:

1) Did anybody see the documentary "Food, Inc."? If you did, you wouldn't even be mildly surprised as to why these outbreaks keep happening. Keep the big corporations away from the decision-making processes and give the farms back to the farmers. I would rather have someone who takes pride in what they do grow my food than someone who is just out to make money.

2) With the way things are going, if you are able to grow a garden you are better off for you know what is in them. Before too long no one will be eating or drinking anything due to the fact it may kill you.

3) I stopped eating American grown cantaloupes unless homegrown or from a farmer's market because it just did not taste right. ole tradition is to put one in a brown paper bag and have it sit a couple days . This will allow it to ripen more to sweetness. IT REALLY WORK FOLKS. GM cantaloupe will not...it will ROT and turn black. This country has gone to the dogs....it can't even grow a decent fruit anymore. The USA used to be king in quality BUT NOT WITH GREED AND MADMEN IN EVERY POSITION IT IS THE PITS' . USA food is the worse in the world now and other countries refuse to by most of this country's food....EVEN TURN IT DOWN IF FREE. With all the poisons, genetic altered foods in this country ,it's know wonder we are getting sicker. FOLKS, I HATE TO SPOIL YOUR DINNER BUT WE IN AMERICA DO NOT EAT THE HEALTHIEST FOODS ANYMORE. Most Middle East, Asian, South American and African fruits and vegges are organic ground. America has become an ARTIFICIAL SOCIETY...the programmed people.....the foods.....the way of life...the thinking....the make believe freedom...the lies and myths in books...the news....papers ....the politics.....AND NOT THEIR #$%$ WATER, WHY....BECAUSE THEY SAY GATORADE IS BETTER !!!!!!

4) your Government at work. Can someone tell me why all this tainted stuff never hits Washington D.C. ?

5) The GOP/Tea Party is hellbent on telling the world how THE FREE AND UNREGULATED MARKET solves all ills... in spite of overwhelming evidence to the contrary. The EPA requires resources to sample the irrigation sources for these farms so that these bacteria are not prevalent. The GOP/Tea Party is demanding the end/restriction/defunding of the EPA.

6) I am fearful of growing my own food because I am a klutz and afraid I would do something wrong and poison myself in some way. But from the looks of it, the national food distribution system of Big Agracorp is far more dangerous than any home garden could ever be.

7) Does it bother anyone else that it has been more than 2 weeks and no one can provide a list of retailers that sell the melons that might have been tainted? I have worked for several retailers, and all of them, big and small, had tracking systems that would make it simple to produce this information in minutes. It makes me wonder whether grocers, producers, wholesalers, and government officials are limiting access to this information to reduce the potential for panic, in the governments case, and lost sales, with the others. This is information that needs to be released to educate the public and prevent further risk. WIthholding the information ensures that there will be more cases, and, potentially, increased severity for those who are infected but do not know it. Earlier medical attention should lessen the severity I would think. Would that not be the responsible thing to do?
