Food Safety & Recalls: FDA and CDC continue urging people to avoid implicated shredded lettuce served at Taco Bell in five states, while Taylor Farms’ recall remains in effect and regulators keep testing products coming across the border. Multiple Outbreak Clusters: FDA says it has investigated five Cyclospora clusters since May; three are closed, while the largest one is still active with illnesses reported as recently as last week. Cross-Border Health Pressure: The outbreak is driving renewed attention on Mexico’s supply chain and how produce is traced and tested before it reaches U.S. shelves.
