Ok, so now where did the the cilantro go?

16.4 years ago cilantro, salmonella, tomato

Well I wrote a couple weeks about my surprise of the missing tomoatos, last week I went back to my favorite Mexican restaurant at work and noticed cilantro has also been removed as a choice of condiments. Going back to my desk I discovered that cilantro and peppers have been added to the list of produce that has been reported tainted with salmonella. With the whole law of supply and demand maybe I should start selling my cilantro and tomotoes at the local farmers market.

    I thought about selling some of mine but then I came to my senses and froze them instead. Hey, I may need them for our cooking.

    I did some serious intensive planting of cilantro and never got around to thinning but have a literal carpet of cilantro in that section. Just now some of it is starting to go to seed I have been really good about keeping them moist. Hopefully it will hold out until tomatoes begin to ripen.

    Now they are covered with white flowers and becoming coriander which I will use for next years planting and pickles.
