Summary

The FDA accidentally flagged Taylor Farms’ iceberg lettuce for Cyclospora — a nasty gut parasite — triggering a recall… only to later admit it was a false positive. Taylor Farms acted fast to protect consumers, pulling just that one product line, not their entire lineup. The FDA apologized, and while no confirmed positive tests exist yet, the company remains fully cooperating with ongoing investigations. A messy, fast-moving food safety scare that proves how easily things can go sideways — and how quickly they’re corrected.
