Plant pathology on Gourmet.com...what?!

That's right. I went to Gourmet.com tonight to watch a video on gnocchi making, and to my surprise the first picture that popped up on the screen was a picture of a diseased tomato leaf. Seeing diseased tomato leaves is quite common for me while working at the U of I plant clinic, but on Gourmet.com, an after work haven for me? No way! This is unbelievable. Well it turns out that Bonnie plants sold a bunch of diseased tomato plants to thousands of home gardeners creating an epidemic of late blight. And its got everybody talking. Funny thing is I knew about this weeks ago. Too bad Gourmet.com didn't contact me for an interview. Check out the article here: Gourmet.com on late blight
