Taco Bell is pulling some fresh ingredients from its menu items as a parasite outbreak that causes explosive and watery diarrhea is spreading rapidly across the country.
The fast food chain posted signs at several locations, including in Metro Detroit, informing customers that they are unable to provide a handful of produce items regularly on the menu as health officials investigate a spike in cyclosporiasis cases. Nearly 1,000 people in Michigan have been infected with the illness - the state typically identifies only about 50 cases a year.
