Foodborne outbreaks in Canada linked to produce.
J Food Prot. 2001 Nov;64(11):1863-77.

Examples of foodborne outbreaks traced to fresh fruits and vegetables can be
found worldwide. The quantity of produce eaten per capita has been increasing
steadily over the past two decades, creating a heightened potential for
produce-related foodborne disease. A number of outbreaks identified during this
time period were reviewed, with particular emphasis placed on incidents that
have occurred in Canada. The collective information highlights the diversity of
infectious agents and produce items involved, with a view to the prevention of
fresh produce-related foodborne disease in the future.
