Former USDA inspector says Hepatitis A outbreak was preventable - CBS 5 - KPHO

Popoff knows the organic industry.  As a former farmer and USDA inspector, he says he's seen this before.
"It's kind of like deja vu, I felt like well we're really missing the point here. And the point is we should be testing," Popoff said.
Popoff said all food is tested, but only organic food uses manure for fertilizer.  He said testing for pathogens, which isn't done now, is pretty cheap.
