I’m eating a salad because I’m not in the U.S. and I can do that safely. 🤭

Worth being aware that the salad identified as causing the problem was imported.

Taylor Farms, which has a near monopoly on lettuce of all varieties in the U.S., constantly has food safety violations. This isn’t the first problem with them, just the most prominent.

Yu, and they sell lettuce in Canada, Mexico, and Europe. Response teams can track and stop an outbreak but people outside the US can get sick from Taylor Farms lettuce before those teams get to work.
