Great article.

"Those bacteria also prefer alkaline environments" is incorrect though. C. bolulinum doesn't like alkaline any more than it likes acid - it likes neutral pH. The only reason the term "low-acid" is used to describe the food it prefers is that food is never "highly alkaline" - you'd never eat food that is pH 11, but we eat pH 3 foods all the time (limes are about pH 2).

And rest assured that "low-acid foods such as asparagus, lima beans, green beans, corn, meats, fish, and poultry" are perfectly safe to eat if produced commercially, provided the cans haven't leaked and they've been processed properly.
