And though I didn’t see an elephant, they lurk in Panti… this is an elephant fence protecting a palm plantation.

Back in the olden days of the family farm we never knew about the occurrence of food-related illness because we did not have a way of tracking it. The federal government needs to recommit itself to putting boots on the ground in America and elsewhere to inspect and protect our food supply. Peters Paso Robles, Calif., 21, 2008
