Update on the explosive diarrhea parasite situation as of July 20th
A false positive test result doesn’t change the “overwhelming epidemiological data” linking Taylor Farms to the outbreak, the FDA said.
So Taylor Farms is claiming that the FDA apologized to them over a false positive test result on their shredded lettuce, but...
It sounds like Taylor Farms tried to save face and present false confidence that their products have been definitively ruled out as the source of the parasite, but the FDA is pushing back. I think everyone should still avoid Taco Bell and Taylor Farms products, and remember, cooking produce to at least 158 degrees Fahrenheit will kill the parasite. If you chop up vegetables to cook them, remember to wash them, the knife, the cutting board, and then your hands after. Stay safe, everyone.
This is. Really fucking weird. This situation is Sus af it cannot be understated
