I am not sure of the reasons behind this, but many believe it is due to poor hygiene of the people working with the goods, such as undocumented workers in a plant or produce fields. I even read that in the produce fields, there isn't always a place for the workers to relieve themselves, so many times, they just do it in the field. That also means no where to wash their hands, too.

Actually, some people, like George Lopez think it is done deliberately:

I am not sure about it being done deliberately, but I would bet on the poor hygiene being the cause.
