So a week ago, I posted that there's a listeria outbreak in Colorado. People were warned to avoid deli meats, unpasteurized dairy, etc. Turns out, this one goes to the fruits instead. Cantaloupe is (once again) making the news for making people sick. "Cantaloupe's always in the top five of fresh fruits and vegetables for outbreaks," says Doug Powell, professor and food safety expert at Kansas State University. For more info on why, go here.
