Who's picking you store bought veggies. Trump got rid of most of the immigrant farm workers and private prisons are hiring out the inmates for farm labor Those prisons have had multiple violations for sanitation.

It really is scary how one small ingredient can cause so much trouble, Sofia. I usually steer clear of the salads too, especially when thinking about how many people might get sick.

This is actually terrifying—I can’t believe it all comes down to the shredded lettuce! Definitely makes me think twice about my next Taco Bell run. Do you guys usually trust the salads at fast food spots, or do you steer clear?

The only thing that should be reported is THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION STOPPED REQUIRING TESTING FOR THIS PARASITE. I live in Ohio. This isn't funny. I have a have a totally boring number of boring health problems that require I eat a boring diet of healthy foods. And for that I get explosive diarrhea? OMG please Trump stop trying to kill me. Between housing costs, medical costs, food costs, gas costs, explosive diarrhea because a bunch of farmers won't spring for port-a-potties and farm workers must poop in a ditch is just TOO MUCH.
