Taco Bell Hit With Federal Lawsuits Over Cyclosporiasis Infections The latest federal lawsuits against Taco Bell and its franchisees over cyclosporiasis infections have shed light on a disturbing trend in the fast food industry.
At least three lawsuits filed this week accuse Taco Bell of negligence, breach of warranty, and deceptive trade practices related to contaminated shredded iceberg lettuce supplied by Taylor Farms.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has confirmed 1,645 cases of cyclosporiasis across 34 states, with the majority linked to Taco Bell's use of Taylor Farms' produce.
