🚨📢NEW FROM @US_FDA TONIGHT: A positive cyclospora sample has been obtained from a Taylor Farms iceberg lettuce product that is NOT part of the current recall. “A sample of shredded iceberg lettuce supplied by Taylor Farms de Mexico has tested positive for Cyclospora. This sample was collected during targeted import surveillance as a result of this outbreak investigation. Taylor Farms has confirmed that this positive product is not part of their current recall. They are currently working to identify whether any part of this implicated lot is available in commerce or in consumers homes. The positive lot is currently detained and more information will be provided as it becomes available.” As a reminder, the current recall was already designed and thought to be overly expansive as a precaution, and includes all iceberg lettuce from central Mexico, even though the original FDA traceback only implicated a single, independent farm which produces 5-pound bags of lettuce for the food service industry. So, from my understanding, I guess this new detection comes from outside of “central Mexico”.







@Rebecca21951651 These points are, of course, raised in the itw, and G. Achaz responds to them precisely, and modestly, stating what they have observed after a very thorough study. You may not want to see this, just like @R_H_Ebright, who agrees with you 100% — and has blocked me. How telling.
