- The Cyclospora Mystery: How Human Poop Got on So Much Lettuce
U.S. health officials linked six more states to what’s now the largest outbreak of cyclospora in American history — an outbreak that has contributed to at least two deaths, sickened thousands of people and left the rest of us increasingly scared of salad.
Today, Christina Jewett and Caroline Hopkins Legaspi, two public health reporters who have covered the parasite for The New York Times, discuss what’s been learned about where it comes from, how it spread so quickly and why our food safety system seems to be powerless to stop it.
Guest:
- Christina Jewett, covers the Food and Drug Administration for The New York Times.
- Caroline Hopkins Legaspi, a health reporter focusing on nutrition and sleep for The New York Times.
Background reading:
- Taco Bell and the food distributor Sysco have pulled Taylor Farms lettuce from supply chains after it was linked to cyclosporiasis.
- The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has linked six more states to the cyclospora outbreak associated with iceberg lettuce.

Over the past decade, the Tate brothers have built a global empire around pornography, hypermasculinity and overt misogyny. At the same time, they have been repeatedly accused of assaulting and trafficking women.

40 min - After Losing Her Limbs, Our Cooking Columnist Returns to the Kitchen
For decades, the kitchen was the centerpiece of Yewande Komolafe’s life. She spent long hours there, first as a restaurant cook and later as a recipe developer. But though she loved the often-intense culinary world, she had to navigate it with certain limitations: She was born with sickle cell disease, an inherited blood disorder, which required her to carefully manage her working life. She did so successfully, becoming a celebrated cookbook author and food writer for The Times.
A medical crisis in December 2023 changed all of that. Komolafe ended up in a coma for six weeks, and after emerging learned that both her legs and her fingers would need to be amputated. In this episode of “The Sunday Daily,” Komolafe tells Rachel Abrams about what happened and how, after everything, she made her way back into the kitchen.
On Today’s Episode:
Yewande Komolafe is a cooking columnist for The New York Times.
