The culprit? Shredded iceberg lettuce from a small, independent farm in Central Mexico, linked to Taylor Farms, which has pulled all its Mexican-grown lettuce off U.S. shelves. Taco Bell is replacing affected lettuce within 24 hours in key states and warning residents in Indiana, Kentucky, Michigan, Ohio, and West Virginia to avoid it. This isn’t the first time Taylor Farms has faced this issue — they were involved in a similar outbreak in 2013. Health officials are also investigating separate outbreaks across 34 states, likely underreported. Taylor Farms says it’s deeply sorry for the illness and is working to rebuild trust after this crisis shakes confidence in fresh produce safety.
