Taylor Farms Recalls Iceberg Lettuce Amid Cyclosporiasis Outbreak The recent outbreak of cyclosporiasis linked to Taylor Farms' iceberg lettuce has raised questions about the safety and regulation of the produce industry in the United States.
The company's decision to voluntarily recall its lettuce from central Mexico is a welcome step, but it only addresses symptoms of a larger problem.
At issue is the FDA's inability to effectively track and regulate foodborne pathogens across the supply chain.
