Well, the FDA is part of a government that hates Mexicans. What do you think?

quantum diarrhea much like the quantumly open Strait of Hormuz

Slash and burn an agency filled with highly trained professionals and be surprised it is behaving incompetently.

Man cutting all those 'useless' programs continue to pay dividends!
Republicans, they'll destroy the economy, cut your benefits, starve children and cause a pandemic while still getting 50% of the vote because this nation is run by and for assholes.
Resistance1000
A tRump Regime agency admitting an error? Surely you jest.
robpaschal
Didn't I read Taco Bell solved this?

They're pointed to as the source. Their representative visits 1600 Pen and suddenly they claim it was all a mistake.

Taylor seems desperate for a declaration that it was one of the MEXICO farms, not one of their California farms, which means it doesn't count as them.

For anyone who isn't a fan of NYP sensationalism, here's the link to the AP article: https://apnews.com/article/cyclospora-lettuce-taco-bell-cdc-fda-77f2b6db56fbeddcae045a03ccf122c4

Trump probably threatened to fire everyone at the FDA if they confirmed the apology because it makes him look bad.

It mostly came from bagged lettuce that is served by restaurants.

This parasite isn't removed by washing. Requires extreme heat, and most people don't boil their lettuce before eating it

I like to raw dog my Taco Bell lettuce. No wash necessary.
wobblecopterrrr
always make sure that taco is washed before eating...

FDA "believes". So... isn't it their job to "Shut the fucking place down until they comply with testing" instead?
baconbts
The article says TF is in Mexico. Do you think the FDA has the pull to shutdown operations in foreign nations?
redditmcredditface
Yes https://www.fda.gov/food/international-cooperation-food-safety/fda-senasica-cofepris-food-safety-partnership
redditmcredditface
Also... I wouldn't put it past this admin to point the finger because the real culprit is a Trump loyalist.
redditmcredditface
Update by the way, looks like Taylor Farms paid off the Trump admin
LitterBoxKing
At this point, the FDA will plant evidence just to save face.

Not to be that guy but isnt food imports the usda realm? I know the fda is involved but.....

Or ass, as the case may be

We had more reliable information about wmds in Iraq. And then the people who managed to put demolition charges in the world trade center, couldn't find the wmds in Iraq. Someone please make it make sense?!?!?!? /S
YuffieK
Makes you wonder if someone in the govt had a hand in spreading cyclospora...
Luvlyquants
I blame the Big TP industry. :)
Gargwill
Yeah they want to sell more TP for people's bung holes.
barontaint
It's time for Big Bidet Industry to capitalize on an increase of sore anus due to excessive wiping, it's their time to shine.
Vempire
Bidet all the way
YuffieK
Curse you, Charmin! You've betrayed Asgard!
MechKelly
TP becomes torture after a few rounds of diarrhea. The bidet industry though. I think they're starting to make their move.
Apothecarius
They want those big Covid profits back

Is any part of the government trustworthy anymore? This has gotten so far from what it’s suppose to be.
IlluminaBlade
anymore?
azgrak
https://share.google/D5Gy1eU7Xe4vmna2E. A rep for Taylor Farms visited the White House. Soon after the White House issued a mea culpa. So no, not trustworthy.

This is by design. They've put the worst people possible in charge of each government agency to prove that they don't work and should be dissolved and deregulated.
MKESewerRat
This. And then they go online and say "Wow fellow kids, isn't it wild and funny that government never works? I guess we're all on our own and shouldn't bother organizing, haha!"

It’s not a bug it’s a feature
