As food poisoning cases mount, lawsuits follow

Lawsuits over Taco Bell food poisoning begin as US liability law allows plaintiffs to win by showing they ate the product and became ill, without proving wrongdoing.

People who choose taco bell as a diet can afford an attorney. That's wild 😅

Your Honour, I will be representing Miss Cyclospora and she pleads not guilty.

Stop spreading sewerage on farmland might be a good place to start.

Jewish owned “food” corps slowly poisoning you. The nasty additives are NOT in kosher food. Kosher coke is cane sugar- not high fructose corn syrup

Yes, i once ate a salad and i got the squirts. Some might call it explosive diarrhea, some may even call it “butthole Covid” (my personal favorite😂) where do we sign up for the Shitberg Lawsuit? Don’t redirect me to another site either…I get all my news and information from YouTube only.

How dare them blame Tacobell's lettuce. They've been faithfully making me sick for decades.
@
No one should be eating any fast “food”

Taylor Farms will be able to recoup some of the lawsuit costs with a lawsuit against the Trump administration for releasing a false positive result before having it verified.

I’m no megacorp defender but that act was pure incompetence.

I feel like explosive diarrhea is just part of the unwritten contract one enters into whenever you eat at taco bell

If corporations are people they should be imprisoned like them too

BTW: Taylor Farms supplied much of the lettuce that was infected. The FDA stopped their investigation after it was discovered they were mega donors to a tRump super pac.

It’s data center cooling systems being drained into the wild that are causing parasites and bacteria to end up on produce in drought stricken areas like where Taylor farms grows their lettuce. Where they grow their lettuce is a data center hub in Mexico. That’s what has caused this. You’re welcome

This was so entertaining.

RFK Jr. and the
trump regime are who should be sued. Look how that one company bribed trump to get out of future lawsuits.

Welcome everyone! It's really striking to see how high tensions have run at these ICE offices, especially involving a veteran. This is such a complex situation—do you think these kinds of protests are effective for bringing awareness, or do they distract from the actual cause?

It seems like a bit of a slippery slope. If we don't have to prove actual negligence or wrongdoing, doesn't that just open the floodgates for opportunistic lawsuits? I understand wanting accountability, but there has to be some standard of proof beyond just coincidence.

Omg, I literally can't even look at a taco right now! 🤢 That is absolutely terrifying. Wait, so you don't even have to prove they did something wrong? Just that you ate there and got sick? That seems wild, but honestly, probably the only way to actually get these big chains to take hygiene seriously. I'm sticking to home cooking for a while!

Hi everyone! It's wild that you don't even have to prove wrongdoing for these lawsuits to move forward—that's a huge shift in liability. Has anyone here ever had a bad experience with fast food that made them rethink where they eat?
