...While it's still not clear exactly how the packaged spinach was contaminated, health officials suggest that no bagged spinach should be eaten raw. Cooking the leaves at 160 degrees Fahrenheit will kill the organisms, but washing, even in warm water, may not be enough to eliminate all of the bacteria that may have become embedded in the plant tissues when stalks or leaves are broken...
