The CDC says it has traced cases in the cyclospora outbreak to a Taylor Farms supplier in Mexico, though there may be other, unrelated sources.
They're advising caution on eating shredded lettuce from some of the places supplied by Taylor Farms, including Taco Bell, McDonald's, Wendy's, Subway, and Chipotle.
