Good question Phil,

Pathogens related to vegetables:

E-coli 0157:H7...........Alfalfa sprouts, lettuce,raw ground beef.
Salmonella........Raw fruits and vegetables.
Bacillus Ceres.......Grains, meats, vegetables.

Vegetables can also carry Hepatitis A when infected through poor handling from an infected person.

Of course there are other things such as parasites, fertlizers, pesticides.....
that can contaminate veggies.
