Ding!

We have NO direct regulatory power over their Mexican facilities.

Only spot inspections, as you already walked away from and deleted.

AGAIN:

The FDA did test Taylor Farms' product at the U.S.-Mexican border —
aimed at preventing more tainted produce from entering the United
States. That initially produced ​a positive result for the presence of
cyclospora, but it turned out to be a false positive following
quality-control checks, the ⁠agency said.

"Cyclosporiasis is very hard to test for. There's no whole genome
sequencing," Gottlieb said. "FDA relies on whole genome sequencing to
effectively fingerprint a pathogen to try to isolate a particular
pathogen to ​a particular outbreak to a particular grower. You don't
have that in this case."

Do you have proof they vary by nation?

I bet not.


Google AI Overview:                

"Taylor Farms states that its international
facilities follow the same core food safety standards, pathogen
testing, and traceability rules as its U.S. operations, though critics
and food safety experts note that oversight, local farm audits, and
hands-on regional monitoring can differ or prove less intensive in
Mexico.

Food Safety and Inspection StandardsCompany Policy: 

Taylor Fresh
Foods requires international and domestic partners to meet identical
internal guidelines, USDA-aligned pathogen testing, and environmental
monitoring protocols.

Regulatory Oversight: 
Mexican processing plants
are subject to local government health checks (such as by Senasica) and
must align with export rules, but distinct regional farming networks
mean physical, on-the-ground auditing by dedicated U.S. staff happens
less continuously than in domestic hubs like California or
Arizona.

Recent Actions: 
Following traceback investigations tied to an
outbreak, Taylor Farms suspended iceberg lettuce sourcing from central
Mexico and brought in independent experts to conduct a full review of
protocols at that facility."

Only to TDS idiots looking to lie as always.

AGAIN (and as many times as you like):

Q: "Did the government try to cover up the cyclospora outbreak?"

GooGoo AI: 

"No, there is
no evidence of a government cover-up. The rumors of a cover-up stem
from a chaotic and lagging official response, coupled with a
high-profile public mistake by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

Because Taylor Farms is a major political donor, critics on social
media alleged collusion. However, the Trump administration vehemently
denied these claims, and the FDA explicitly stressed that the error did
not alter their overwhelming epidemiological data pointing to Taylor
Farms lettuce as the source of the main outbreak."
