Learn More »Sprouted grains might just be the next food fad. These little sprouts are packed with healthy nutrients, and some varieties you are likely to find at your local grocery store include alfalfa, clover and mung bean sprouts. Lesser known varieties of sprouts can include sunflower, radish, lentil and broccoli. Though sprouts boast a healthy nutrient profile, they also can carry an important warning label. Historically, sprouts have been targeted as a source of E. coli, Listeria and Salmonella outbreaks that caused a number of illnesses across the U.S. The source of contamination can come from bacteria that is inside the seed and can’t simply be washed off. Additionally, sprouts, just like any other food, are subject to cross-contamination from external sources during harvesting, transport and storage at your local grocery store. This could include run-off from animal agriculture systems, manure used to fertilize plants and using contaminated water to wash produce. With an increase in popularity of local foods and going as close to the source as possible for ingredients, sprouting at home has become more and more popular. But sprouting your own grains at home does not automatically mean that they are free from contamination. When sprouting at home, it’s important to keep in mind some quick tips to limit the growth of harmful bacteria during the process.
