Cow patties spread onto melons are dangerous. With modern chemical fertilizers spreading fecal matter on food is unnecessary. Whether human c@#p is more dangerous than animal C@#p is not the point. Neither belongs on food and either is more likely to show up on food from an organic farm.

Actually, that IS the point.

Bovine excement doesn't contain the listeria bacteria.

Human excrement might.

And you are correct. No kind of excrement belongs on food.

In the soil, yes. On the food, no.

Any c@#p spread on food whether human or animal is dangerous to human health, period. But the fact is, feces/manure is not spread on the produce, it is spread on the ground & worked into the soil prior to planting, thus anything that touches the soil becomes contaminated, from the farm equipment to the hands that work the fields.
