The CDC did not publicly name Taylor Farms in its investigation, but it did say in a notice posted by the CDC on Thursday night that it, the Food and Drug Administration and other public health officials were investigating a five-state outbreak of Cyclospora infections linked to shredded iceberg lettuce served at Taco Bell locations, advising the public to avoid consuming it from Taco Bell locations in Indiana, Kentucky, Michigan, Ohio and West Virginia.
Per the New York Times, a spokeswoman for Taylor Farms did not return requests for comments about the CDC's recent findings. At this time, it is unknown if Taylor Farms supplied this lettuce to other vendors, according to one of the officials who spoke with the New York Times, who was "not cleared to speak for the administration."

According to the CDC, symptoms usually start about one week after becoming infected. Without treatment, these symptoms can last anywhere from a few days to a month or more. Do note that you may need a specific test to confirm a case of Cyclospora, as routine stool tests don't always screen for that particular parasite, as recommended by the CDC.
