Vegetables

10 years ago
My novia, and everyone else I know here in Arequipa seems to be deathly scared of raw vegetables. Is there anything to that? Or does one simply rinse and eat as in the US? I hear that the vegetables are grown with human waste water and that feces is mixed in with that water. I thought that was organic fertilizer. What do you think? The ability to eat raw or uncooked vegetables would make healthy eating much easier and the vegetables in the St. Camillo mercado look great.
