Read our privacy policy More than 400 people have been infected with a parasite after eating McDonald’s salads in the US, according to health officials. The outbreak of Cyclospora – which can cause explosive diarrhoea – was first reported in May and has been linked to a mix of romaine lettuce and carrots. “McDonald’s is committed to the highest standards of food safety and quality and we continue to cooperate and support regulatory and public health officials in their investigations.” On 26 July tests of an unused package of Fresh Express salad mix containing romaine lettuce and carrots – which had an expiry date of 19 July – confirmed the presence of Cyclospora. Last month it emerged an outbreak of salmonella outbreak linked to the popular Kellogg’s cereal Honey Smacks had infected 100 people in 33 US states.
