Got I. carnea-still looking for I. macrorhiza. Thanks!

Thanks, Tonya, I replied. I also updated my list again today.

If folks are buying organic/natural/free range eggs because they taste better (which they do!) that's great. But I think there is a mistaken idea out there that such eggs are much safer than your plain old, store bought eggs. Setting aside such debates as regard other matters, an organic, free ranging chicken is just as able to pick up salmonella as a caged one. "Unfortunately, organic eggs can become infected with Salmonella just as easily, and perhaps more so, as eggs produced by conventional farming methods. Chickens become contaminated in many ways, including pecking at insects that pick up bacteria from the environment, pecking at droppings that carry germs or drinking contaminated water. Free-range chickens may have better living arrangements than traditional factory chickens, but they have a wider range of environment in which to pick up bacteria. In one study, free-range chickens had higher levels of PCBÂs, organic chemicals linked to negative health effects in both animals and humans." http://www.emaxhealth.com/1506/buying-organic-does-not-protect-against-food-borne-illness Really, eating eggs, especially when not thoroughly cooked is something of a crap shoot, and always has been. But we engage in more dangerous crap shoots every day. A little perspective is always helpful. According to the CDC, just 5,000 deaths a year are attributable to food borne illness in the US. Salmonella is only one of three pathogens that share responsibility for 1500 of those deaths. I've included a link. Take a look at the case fatality rates, for one thing. If one checks into the statistics regarding other causes of death, worry about eating eggs will likely dissipate. In fact, a little research on causes of death will show that food-borne illnesses aren't even usually listed. Are organic foods better for us? Maybe. But to what extent, for what reason, and if so, what is the cost to benefit ratio? As I said, organic, free range eggs do taste better, in my opinion. But if you eat them raw or even sunny side up (I do!) you lays your bets and takes your chances. Here is a link that might be useful: CDC report

Bumping up. Also, I forgot to include tomatillos in my Want list. Rodney
