#TacoBell is speaking out after federal health officials say shredded iceberg lettuce served at select locations has been linked to a cyclospora outbreak. This parasite can cause severe diarrhea and other stomach-related illnesses.
_________________________
According to apnews, the CDC confirmed that the lettuce was sourced from Mexico and served at Taco Bell restaurants in Indiana, Kentucky, Michigan, Ohio, and West Virginia. Officials say a record number of cyclospora cases have been reported across more than 30 states, though not every case has been tied to this specific source.

The FDA traced the lettuce to a single supplier, and Taco Bell has since committed to stopping the use of lettuce connected to the investigation. Federal officials are also working to determine whether any potentially contaminated lettuce is still on the market. Swipe to read a statement from Taco Bell and Taylor Farms.
