Taco Bell removes key ingredients amid parasite spread
I have a question. If specific Taco Bell ingredients were causing explosive diarrhea, how would you be able to tell
Ian Boudreau111Which ingredients? All. They all do. That's what happens at Taco Bell
Brendel48Hello I ordered mine *with* the diarrhea parasite please, let me talk to your manager so they can make this right
monstrepierre.bsky.social24I think the difference here is ruined afternoon vs. ruined month.
Dunkin’ Idaho20Yeah there’s a, uh, parasite. You only get it at Taco Bell. No I know, it’s awful. We’re definitely looking into it. Parasite, yup, so crazy
arcadus ☭ and 8,549,176,320 others18“Despite the temporary removal of several fresh ingredients, Taco Bell is not lowering prices on affected menu items. Customers will still be charged the standard price for burritos, tacos, and bowls even without lettuce, guacamole, or pico de gallo.” I’m not at all surprised 🤦
Misha Tri-Flow Glow14An old friend of mine had the funniest Taco Bell take: “Why don’t I cut out the middle man and throw this directly in the toilet.”
XelArtz (TEAM COMEDY)15the jokes write themselves atp lol
Nanuk the Jedi Wolf - Pride 36511Uhm.....I don't know how to respond to this.......
Hungover Gourmet6I feel sorry for people whose tummies can’t handle Taco Bell. (Not mocking people affected by the parasite.)
Will3Taco bell doesn't cause diarrhea, except in people who are chronically deprived of fibre.
Hustle Chillson2Everything owned by Yum! Taco Bell, Pizza Hut, KFC heavily features that ingredient.
Kellum Dander2they say it's a feature not a bug
Jennifer2I worked in an ER this is a legit question
Voices of Freedom2The Cyclospora parasite is raging thru the US produce industry at the moment and the FDA is doing NOTHING about it.
Christian!2That just seems like the risk you take
1/4 A stomach parasite doesn't care about politics. It cares about weak safeguards. As Cyclospora cases surge across multiple states, Taco Bell is pulling fresh ingredients while investigators trace the source.
Jack Hopkins-The Original1312/4 Food safety isn't optional…it's public health. Beginning in July 2025, under the Trump administration, the CDC dramatically scaled back FoodNet.
Glenn67Evidently disease and death are part of Trump’s “Great” America.
momofanangel.bsky.social42I already have a couple of friends with it in michigan. Symptoms are horrid. One of my friends has been sick for three weeks. Cases are multiplying quickly. Please, stay away from fresh produce until they figure this out. 😢
News & Politics30Taco Bell has fresh ingredients???
RELEASE THE EPSTEIN FILES NOW21First came the Screwworms and now Cyclospora, it seams to me that food safety should be the number one priority of this damned country. Beings as the person in charge of this literal shit show doesn't have a clue I hope he starts consuming mass quantities of Big Macks.
retiredinsojo.bsky.social15Officials in Wyoming said a contractor for Mark Zuckerberg’s tech company, Meta, flushed bacteria-contaminated water into public sewers during construction of a controversial new AI datacenter.
Tripper 🇨🇦29U.S Becoming a literal “shithole” I’m sorry. 🇨🇦
Patriotic American💯23And guess what Jack Trump don't give a f*** he don't give a f*** if we all end up dead from all this shit!!
cshammer16Read the entire thread if you are curious why we have to deal with explosive diarrhea caused by Cyclospora.
CupcakeYOW3Another reason to avoid anything imported from the U.S. while at the grocery store.
Janine2I won’t eat any fresh fruit or vegetables out of fear of being that ill! I’ve had food poisoning once in my life but, this looks even worse than that!
The enchirito is back and contains no fresh ingredients that could harbor life
Taco Bell Quarterly51They nuke that bad boy in to 392° in a plastic container and no bacteria survives
B. Zelkovich is peering out of their cave7The enchirito would never hurt me.
Ray3Isn’t Taco Bell already a laxative?
joecorey3rd.bsky.social3Taco Bell is scared of competition
An Abbreviated Family Dictionary3Yeah, but does the new enchirito have the 3 olive slices of my lost youth?
I got one today. So good. the diarrhea is worth it.
Fleer14Taco Bell: "We've heard your jokes about diarrhea. Not so funny now, is it?"
Jason Collette12So, they’re just closing all locations ?
kyle9It's true. Had one the other night, and while it definitely shortened my lifespan, it was delicious
Chi-Chi's Mexican Restaurant6My susceptibility to suggestion knows no bounds (getting an enchirito for lunch)
Gareth Watkins5RIP Neil Hamburger you would have loved retweeting this
Jay Campbell4You're gonna have a real confounding variables problem trying to pin down what, specifically, in a Taco Bell meal caused explosive diarrhea.
Suzan Eraslan4I'm surely not the only one who reads "enchirito" as if it were etymologically related to "enchiridion", right?
PaprikaPink3Is anybody else here old enough to remember when Taco Bell menus said "in-chuh-REE-toe" and similar under all the menu items?
LisaBetsey 🔰2Maybe I’ll give it a little while bsky.app/profile/taco...
Taco Bell has pulled key ingredients from it's menu due to possible contamination from a parasite that results in "loud explosive diarrhea 🌮 💥 💩 🚽 "We are currently unable to sell Lettuce, Cilantro Onion, Pico de Gallo, and Guacamole..." www.yahoo.com/news/us/arti... #FDA #USDA #Food
Dystopian Utopia13I thought loud explosive diarrhea was always a part of the Taco Bell experience, what's changed?
a!v¡n5I mean, that's why you eat Taco Bell, ain't it?
Feral Grumpy, 🎃🦝🥔4I'm sure they're not adjusting prices for ingredients we're not getting.
jimmythudpucker.bsky.social4If you are scheduled for a colonoscopy, you can save a few bucks on the colonoscopy prep and just eat Taco Bell.
My Bloody Vinyl Time2Is the key ingredient Cyclospora cayetanensis?
🏴2Lmao talk about a shit post
Art Of Coop49Dalai Lama: “If Taco Bell doesn’t give you diarrhea, is it really Taco Bell?”
a!v¡n12I thought explosive diarrhea IS a key ingredient.
Trevor9Neil Hamburger is gonna have a field day with this.
What if a dyke was a deer was a coyote7If you can't stomach taco baco then you ain't gonna survive winter
Dana Holtzbert2When it comes out, does it make that bell sound?
Taco Bell is like: We're gonna make sure you'll only have regular diarrhea here.
ratchetology.bsky.social1how about you get pissed off about the fda being gutted instead
Dr. Darrell C.1I had to throw away my underwear in the Taco Bell bathroom. That was the last time I was there. 😹😹😹
JenBen🏳️🌈1They are more considerate than our government!
Lunakat1🤣🤣. Both tacos cause diarrhea. The one in the whitehouse too.
yeah im no shill for fastfood but the reason taco bell makes people shit is because they dont get enough fiber and the beans blast through them. thats it. most americans get way too little fiber. Taco bell actually makes me shit BETTER Than other fast food because I am used to the level of fiber
Senator Beer Farts19A fellow beanhead who gets it. Thank you
BettyBouge #NAFO5Ok Fiber Man.👍 Thanks for sharing.
stephen4Vegan Crunchwrap is the damn best
Noadi3Yup. I always wondered why people said that about Taco Bell until I found out so many people get way too little fiber.
Heartlight Intuition2Also a large proportion of people are FODMAP intolerant. Beans are just very hard to digest. I get plenty of fiber and I can't eat beans.
Lez Luthor 🇵🇷🏳️🌈1THANK YOU! Ffs please eat some whole wheat something or get Metamucil, shitting yourself after Taco Bell is an entirely preventable occurrence
As the explosive diarrhea parasite spreads Taco Bell has pulled key ingredients responsible for it, those ingredients are as follows: all of their ingredients
𝕯𝖆𝖓𝖓𝖞 𝕱𝖊𝖓4Is this how taco bell wins the franchise wars
FlyBly2You’d think it be an easier decision; but Taco Bell is so damn delicious and I have worse things causing me severe gastrointestinal distress on the daily anyway.
FreeBard42 🏴 🏳️⚧️ 🎭2I heard those jokes for years before a TB opened in Edinburgh and I haven't once had a bad experience from eating there. Spoke to an American friend about this who'd thought she had IBS til she moved here and realised that no, as w/Taco Bell jokes, it's just that US food regulations suuuuuck.
Bobby!!!1This sounds so much like an Onion headline!!!
