Re Oh GREAT. Now it's the tomatoes that will kill you...

Aside from the opportunity for some bad movie memorabilia, note that investigators are looking for a source, because it's not the tomatoes, it's the conditions under which they were grown and/or handled. If they don't find a common source, then it really is weird and scary.

So you see, aside from being poisonous, tomatoes are good for you.

Re Oh GREAT. Now it's the tomatoes that will kill you...

Does washing the tomatoes help? Is this from workers picking tomatoes without washing their hands? Or is the salmonella inside the tomatoes? Is so, where from? Agricultural run-off from feed lots? Plenty of questions there!

Btw, I love Attack of the Killer Tomatoes. The original version was a film studies project.
