AGP Executive Report
Last update: an hour agoFood Safety Crisis (LATAM supply chain): The U.S. FDA says its cyclospora investigation is still pointing to shredded iceberg lettuce from Taylor Farms de Mexico, even after reporting a lab result was a false positive; the recall remains in effect across multiple states and includes lettuce sold via Walmart and served at some Taco Bell locations, while health officials warn consumers to avoid recalled products and keep washing produce. Regulatory Back-and-Forth: FDA acting commissioner Kyle Diamantas stressed the false-positive finding doesn’t change the outbreak probe, and officials say they’re still looking at other possible sources. Mexico Pushback: Mexico’s health minister said there’s no evidence the outbreak originated in Guanajuato, with Cofepris and Senasica continuing inspections and traceability checks. Operational Impact: Restaurants and grocers report menu and foot-traffic shifts as diners reassess salad and fresh-produce risk. Hospitality & F&B Growth (Uruguay): Hotel Equities will manage SLS Punta del Este under Accor/Ennismore, with a full food-and-beverage program planned for early 2029.
