Answer:
Imports of fruits and vegetables have increased. Total imports accounted for 16.4% of all fresh and processed fruits and vegetables in 1996. There are substantial differences among products. Less than one percent of iceberg lettuce, 34% of fresh tomatoes, and 99.5% of bananas are imported.
Scientists and regulatory personnel consider contamination by bacteria and naturally occurring toxins as the greatest foodborne dangers to health. The Center for Disease Control and Prevention indicates that microbial pathogens caused 79% of the 2,423 reported foodborne disease outbreaks and 90% of the 77,373 cases of associated illness in the U.S. between 1988 and 1992. Fresh fruits and vegetables were the vehicle of transmission for 6% of the 1,072 outbreaks for which a specific food was identified. The food source was unknown for over half of the reported outbreaks. Five percent of the illnesses and 22% of the deaths were linked with fruits and vegetables.
