People Can Resume Regular Lettuce Eating Habits, Michigan Health Officials Say Michigan's health officials have announced that people can resume their normal lettuce eating habits after an outbreak of cyclosporiasis linked to shredded iceberg lettuce served at some Taco Bell restaurants.
The outbreak has resulted in over 12,400 cases of cyclosporiasis in the state since June, with 279 hospitalizations and two deaths.
New cases and related emergency department visits are declining, but health officials caution that this is a reminder of the vulnerabilities in our food system.
