Am I overlooking where the outbreak was coming from? They say where they were sold but where were they grown?

The two brands recalled look to have been grown in Mexico.
Thanks, it wasn't clearly stated on the CDC website either, although they said the investigation was ongoing. I just figure a label with where it is from does me no good if I don't know where/when to avoid.
Pre-cut fruit is such a bizarre concept. “No, I could never eat an entire pineapple, it’s too big!” Cool, then grab a smaller fruit to fill the niche. It’s like no one has even considered ham and kiwi pizza.
Worst take I've seen all day. I want the Men in Black neuralizer to be real so I could use it on myself right now. Canned pineapple chunks are fantastic
Canned pineapple chunks are fantastic
I’m not sure if you’re also joking or not.
Totally serious. Canned pineapple isn't nearly as good as fresh but it's pre-sliced and still tasty
I love the mental image of making a ham and kiwi pizza and serving it to guests, then acting like it's totally normal
Absolutely disgusting idea, ham on a pizza
I've had bacon, jalapeno, kiwi pizza. I think it's extraordinarily better than pineapple. The kiwi isn't stringy and it isn't as sweet with just a tinge of a tartness. I'd eat it any day over a pineapple pizza
I did it. I actually made a ham and kiwi pizza and tried it because of this post. If you're interested in my thoughts on it, let me know. I have pictures of it being made and opinions on how it tasted, which I'd be happy to share.
Also, I'm not a weirdo if that's a concern you have. Just a normal person who became very intrigued by the idea of "Kiwizza" as I've dubbed it.
How’d it turn out? I generally make a sweet red sauce to complement the feta so kiwi wouldn’t be terrible on mine. I have no clue whether it’d dump huge amounts of water on the pizza or burn. Spill your secrets, o kiwizza keeper.
So, it was interesting. It was by no means bad, but the kiwi flavor was completely lost. Part of what makes pineapple great on pizza is the texture. It holds up to the heat. The kiwi pieces got so soft and the flavor was overpowered so much by the sauce that it was almost undetectable. It looked nice though, so it wasn't a total loss.
The shape got a little messed up when I transferred it to the pizza stone.
A small sprinkle of low moisture cheese or a slice of mushroom atop the kiwi would insulate it from the heat and provide mouthfeel. It’s the best way I’ve found to keep fresh mozzarella and basil from overcooking. You’ve made me curious enough to try it as well. But I’m a bit sad that my dream of whole, unhidden kiwi slices hanging out atop a pizza as a vegetarian facsimile of pepperoni is dead. You’re a trailblazer.
Also, it may have actually softened your cheese as well, which is interesting. “Actinidain also makes raw kiwifruit unsuitable for use in desserts containing milk or any other dairy products because the enzyme digests milk proteins. This applies to gelatin-based desserts, due to the fact that the actinidain will dissolve the proteins in gelatin, causing the dessert to either liquefy or prevent it from solidifying.”
Wow, that's super interesting about the enzyme. Let me know how your experiment goes if you do try it. I've got you tagged as "Fellow Kiwizza scientist"
You should also avoid cantaloupe because its the worst melon.
Its also more likely to have issues like this because it’s porous and grows on the ground
Comes right before honeydew.
Cantaloupe is like honeydew, except it also has flavor!
What honeydews have y'all been eating? Honeydew is delicious if you get a good one. Yeah, bland ones are out there, but shitty fruit exists for all fruits.
