    Default B12: Roots and stems of tomatoes, cabbage, celery, kale, broccoli and leeks

    Several sources, including the vegan-unfriendly Dr. Herbert, claim that some B12-producing bacteria grow in the nodules and on the roots of some beans. Dr. Mercola is also referring to it here: http://www.mercola.com/2002/jan/30/vitamin_b12_a.htm. WHo knows more about this?
    I will not eat anything that walks, swims, flies, runs, skips, hops or crawls.

    Default Re: B12-producing bacteria in nodules and on roots

    It has been reported that B12 is to be found on the roots and
    stems of tomatoes, cabbage, celery, kale, broccoli, and leeks.
    Victor Herbert, however, found that "well washed" plant foods
    contain no B12 except for trace amounts in some rhibozium-
    bacteria-containing root nodules.
