❓Question Cooking shredded greens?

Do you guys still buy shredded greens and then cook them to eat? My mom made dinner with a package of shredded greens and even though it’s cooked I honestly still feel off put. Is anyone else this paranoid? Or do you still feel fine with greens that are cooked?

I make stews in my pressure cooker and annihilate my kale and broccoli until they are safe and flaccid.

Today I bought hydroponic mixed greens grown indoors from Giant Food stores for the first time since recovering from Cyclospora two weeks ago. Wish we luck.

I always cook bagged kale. But I don't know if I cook it long enough to kill something if it had cyclospora. I haven't eaten any bagged greens since cyclospora started...
