Taylor Farms Recalls Lettuce Over Cyclospora Risk | Jefferson City News

Taylor Farms is urgently recalling 25 shredded lettuce and salad mix products after a possible link to a growing Cyclospora outbreak affecting multiple states. The contamination may stem from a specific lot of iceberg lettuce sourced from central Mexico, which Taco Bell has already pulled from its restaurants nationwide. Health officials suspect the parasite, spread through contaminated water, is causing over 1,600 reported cases and 140 hospitalizations this year — a sharp rise from last year. Sysco, a major distributor, has halted all sales of the affected lettuce and urged customers to discard it. The CDC continues to investigate thousands more potential cases.
