A sample of shredded iceberg lettuce supplied by Taylor Farms de Mexico has tested positive for cyclospora, federal health officials said July 18, noting that the lettuce was collected as part of an ongoing investigation and is not included in the company's current recall.
The investigation has raised questions about whether there is more lettuce posing potential risk.
In the latest update from the Food and Drug Administration, the agency said a sample of shredded iceberg lettuce from Taylor Farms de Mexico recently tested positive for cyclospora. The sample was not part of the lettuce recalled July 17 for potential risk of cyclospora.
The FDA said the contaminated sample was collected through targeted import surveillance conducted as part of the agency's probe. The agency said Taylor Farms confirmed the positive sample is not part of the company's current voluntary recall.
The company is "currently working to identify whether any part of this implicated lot is available in commerce or in consumers homes," according to the FDA, which said the positive lot is being detained while the investigation continues.
