    While you are right about dry beans/lentils, fresh fruits/veggies are no safer than meats. Outbreaks of all sorts get linked to fruits/veggies that get eaten raw. Especially, like the other commenter said, with food items that in a factory setting get all jumbled together and mixed up. One bad apple spoils the bunch, literally.

    Looking at the list of recent outbreaks, most stuff seems to be either prepared foods, or fresh fruit/veggies, all stuff that our food system should prevent.
