Taco Bell Removes Tainted Lettuce After Cyclosporiasis Link

Taco Bell has removed lettuce from its restaurants that the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention linked to a cyclosporiasis outbreak affecting customers. The quick action represents a standard containment measure in response to foodborne illness concerns.

Industry analysts expect the fast-food chain to recover relatively quickly from the health scare, suggesting consumer confidence should rebound following the removal of the contaminated ingredient and any additional safety measures the company implements.
