<font size="4" face="Tempus Sans ITC, Tahoma">For some reason my sick mind projected commercials with an old and sickly popeye, telling people to watch out for pesticides, "Them pesticides ruined me *cough cough* life"Quote:

out of all that ....green beans are the only ones i eat on a regular basis
I didnt think Bananas grew in the US
Do Mexican canteloupes?
I dont drink the water in Mexico you think I would eat a nana from there? [img]graemlins/gulp.gif[/img]
perhaps the fault lies in how the description was
formatted. it wasn't meant to say crops grown IN
the US... just those crops that were highly
contaminated (which could be purchased) in the US.
And funny... I don't see Mexcio on that map?
