## Resource

A new poll reveals 40% of Americans are cutting back on produce due to a growing outbreak, sending shockwaves through the food industry—especially in Metro Detroit, where restaurants face customer anxiety even with clean kitchens. Veteran restaurateur Elizabeth Christie, a nurse and dietician, stays transparent but still sees hesitancy, while others like Azulindo are taking drastic steps, removing lettuce entirely to reassure diners. With over 8,100 Michigan cases and the FDA still investigating lettuce’s role, the food world braces for what’s next.
