In United States, FDA issues final report on 2006 spinach E.coli outbreak

The final report was issued by the FDA regarding the E.coli contaminated spinach outbreak last fall. While the investigation originally focused on a California processing and packaging plant, the final report traced the E.coli back to one of the fields where the spinach was grown.
