What is the problem?
In June 2020, Fresh Express recalled dozens of bagged salads with iceberg lettuce, red cabbage and carrots, because the salads may be contaminated with Cyclospora parasites.
More than 200 infections with Cyclospora were reported, primarily in the Midwest, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
