Lettuce Recall Turns Out to Be a False Alarm | Honolulu News

A major food scare involving Taylor Farms’ shredded iceberg lettuce turned out to be a false alarm — but the fallout is still serious. The FDA initially flagged cyclospora contamination, sparking a recall and prompting Taco Bell to remove the ingredient nationwide. Though Taylor Farms confirmed the affected batch isn’t part of their current recall, they acted proactively. Health officials suspect Mexican-sourced lettuce as the likely culprit in a growing outbreak with over 1,600 confirmed cases — and Sysco has halted shipments, urging destruction of any affected stock. This is a stark reminder: food safety is complex, and vigilance matters more than ever. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
