Default Fear of Lettuce: Is there an app for that?

Good morning,

Just when I thought it was safe to go back in the lettuce, the news is now of parasites lurking.

I have always, always, always scrubbed fresh produce in a somewhat neurotic manner. Kind of like Monk would do. Or Lady MacBeth, “Out! Out! Damned E. coli! Out! Out! Damned bugs!”

I was told that spraying produce with vinegar when washing is a good idea in general. But I don’t know if that really helps.

Keeping up with these recalls is turning into a full time job. (I do not look at the news constantly.)

Anyway, I think there has to be an app that keeps up with recalls and stays current. Does anybody know?
