Walmart Lettuce Recall Linked to Cyclosporiasis | Topeka News

Taylor Farms is recalling thousands of bags of Marketside iceberg lettuce sold at Walmart stores across 14 states after a potential link to a cyclosporiasis outbreak — even though an initial positive test was later deemed a false alarm. The recall covers products with “Best if Used By” dates from July 18 to August 3, and includes lettuce distributed to food service chains like Taco Bell and suppliers Sysco and US Foods. Cyclosporiasis, caused by a parasite, can cause severe stomach cramps and diarrhea lasting up to a month, with 55 cases reported in Kansas alone this year. The FDA continues investigating to pinpoint the exact source, with no other confirmed positive samples as of July 19.
