Summary · why it matters

Walmart announced on Saturday that it has removed four bagged iceberg lettuce salad products after receiving a notice from its supplier, Taylor Farms, as recalls tied to a cyclosporiasis outbreak widen in the U.S. The retailer said there have been no confirmed illnesses associated with the items, which were available under its Marketside store brand at select locations, but pulled the products as a precautionary measure. The affected items are Marketside Bagged Iceberg Salad and Shredded Iceberg Salads. A Walmart spokeswoman said the company is working closely with its supplier and took immediate steps to remove the products from sale, adding that the health and safety of customers is a top priority. The move follows Taco Bell's decision on Friday to remove lettuce from its menu in several states after a CDC investigation linked shredded iceberg lettuce from Taylor Farms to the ongoing outbreak, and Taylor Farms' own recall of iceberg lettuce shipped to retailers in 27 states.
