Summary

Taylor Farms is pulling all iceberg lettuce from central Mexico after it was tied to a massive cyclosporiasis outbreak affecting over 30 states — with Taco Bell already removing the ingredient nationwide to protect customers. Though the FDA points to just one supplier (less than 1% of U.S. supply), Taylor Farms is taking a broad, precautionary step. Symptoms include severe diarrhea, and while no deaths have been reported, the illness is serious. Taco Bell’s swift action has slowed sales, but the company says it’s doing everything to ensure safety and rebuild trust as the investigation continues.
