So you would seriously turn down a contract in another country because of one vegetable? Are you really not able to make your own choice at a dinner table?

Say what you like about Greggs, but they seem to feed the population without these scares. Or mebbe their customers die of heart attacks before they get chance to contract Ecoli.
