@arstechnica probably could have stopped at four words "Don't eat Taco Bell"...
But I remember being a starving college student and pretty much living on their burritos...
@arstechnica
This is so backwards, you know that?
It isn’t Taco Bell growing the lettuce. Or infecting the lettuce. They are getting their lettuce from the same place other restaurants and groceries are
This is the first time I’ve seen news which usually identifies the SOURCE wholesaler or processor involved, try to blame one of the victims instead.
@arstechnica People don't call it "Taco Hell" for no reason.
