Summary
Taco Bell’s shredded iceberg lettuce is now officially linked to a massive cyclospora outbreak affecting over 30 states, with health officials urging residents in five states to avoid the product. The microscopic parasite causes severe diarrhea and is traced to one supplier, Taylor Fresh Foods, which has voluntarily recalled lettuce from central Mexico. While this outbreak is the largest on record, experts warn not every case is tied to this source—and climate change, plus improved detection, may be driving up cases. The investigation is far from over as authorities scramble to protect public health. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
