Fish heads are where I draw the line.

So with all this salmonella talk, I planted my tomatoes this week (better late than never). I figured I’d search around for some good advice first. so I started with farmer Cynthia Sandberg’s blogpost ‘How to Plant a Tomato.’ Now I should’ve suspected something when I saw the name of her farm, but oh no, I just kept reading. So, Cynthia says the key to a good tomato plant is to dig a hole (check!), and add to it - worm castings (check!), organic fertilizer (check!) crushed egg shells (ok..),  bone meal (really?), aspirin tablets (um, I’m not sure..), and fish heads (ok, no.)

Is there any wonder anymore why there’s a salmonella tomato epidemic going on?
