THE FUSE

The ongoing outbreak of explosive diarrhea in Michigan and Ohio caused by the parasite cyclospora isn’t slowing down. Over 3,000 cases have now been reported. And state and federal health officials across the U.S. are reportedly now looking into whether Taco Bell may have had something to do with it. The chain’s sale of lettuce and other greens could potentially be a prime factor in the spread of the parasite. Apparently, the dyes in Baja Blast don’t make you immune.
