BRUSSELS (Reuters) - Belgian police warned thieves Friday who made off with leeks from a vegetable farm: don't eat them -- they could be toxic.
The robbers stole 440 pounds of leeks, a main ingredient of Vichyssoise soup, but police warned that the vegetables should have stayed in the ground another six weeks to be safe after treatment with toxic pesticides.
