July 19 (Reuters) - The U.S. Food and Drug Administration said on Sunday that laboratory experts re-checked lettuce sample results from Taylor Farms in an investigation into an outbreak of the cyclospora parasite and concluded the finding should be considered a false positive. As of Sunday, there were no confirmed positive sample results for cyclospora, the FDA added.
The FDA on Saturday had said that a sample of shredded iceberg lettuce supplied by Taylor Farms tested positive for the parasitic illness that has sickened thousands of people in the U.S.
A spokesperson for Taylor Fresh Foods told Reuters that the company was informed the FDA made a mistake.


I’m still a fan of the cheesy double beef burrito. Super basic, but it hits the spot every time.
Slightly unrelated, but if you have a chance to go to the Taco Bell Cantina on the Vegas Strip, absolutely do it. The quality is miles better than an average location (my brother and I said it must be like the corporate kitchen equivalent), they have alcohol, and you can walk around the Strip before/after.
Edit: also, always get your burritos grilled! I found out that was an option once when I ordered at a kiosk and it’s changed my life.
Thanks for the tip… I have a couple of Taco Bell tips to pass along.
First, I don’t know the science behind this, but if you mix Baja Blast with Pink Lemonaid, the pink and blue turn clear.
Second, a few weeks ago I picked up some powdered THC and sprinkled that into a chili cheese burrito… might just be one of the greatest things I’ve ever done.
TIL powdered thc was a thing
How long does that high last?
For me it kicks in about 15 - 30 minutes after taking it, and lasts around 5 hours with the peak around the 2-3 hour mark. I like the powder because it’s very easy to control the dosage to match my needs for the day.
A grilled cheesy double beef burrito is basically a steak grilled cheese burrito for like half the price. It’s my go-to these days.
