Cyclosporiasis Outbreak: Salad Safety Alert | Boston News

Salads just got a little scarier—thousands nationwide are sick from cyclosporiasis, linked to iceberg lettuce from Mexico. With over 100 cases in Massachusetts alone, experts urge caution: avoid raw store-bought lettuce until the source is pinned down. While washing helps, it’s not foolproof. Some say cook veggies for safety; others warn against ditching produce entirely. Local farmers markets offer safer bets with shorter supply chains. Stay informed, avoid recalled items, and don’t panic—your diet doesn’t have to change completely. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
