Dooood! What the? Okay, check this out. Guys, there's a parasite going around called cyclospora, and the number one symptom, straight from the CDC, is explosive diarrhea. Taco Bell got so spooked they pulled the lettuce, the onion, the cilantro, the pico, and the guac. That is not a menu change, that is a hostage situation. Okay you guys, story time, and this is so personal, but we are a community, so. I ate a Crunch Wrap Supreme on camera for content, and forty minutes later my bathroom became a splash zone. Anyway I turned it into a series called Gut Check, link in bio, and today's episode is unsponsored, because Pepto will not answer my emails. Nearly a thousand people are sick, and her only real concern was whether the bathroom had good lighting. Duuude... What the. (sigh)
Cyclospora is a parasite that can cause gastrointestinal illness, characterized by symptoms like explosive diarrhea.
Taco Bell removed certain ingredients such as lettuce and onions to address concerns over a cyclospora outbreak linked to their food items.
The outbreak has reportedly sickened nearly a thousand individuals, prompting health warnings from authorities.
Gut Check is a series created by DOOOD's host where they eat Taco Bell products on camera and document the aftermath, highlighting issues with food safety in an entertaining way.
This particular episode of Gut Check is unsponsored; the host mentions that Pepto-Bismol did not respond to their emails for potential collaboration.
