Taylor Farms has come under fresh attention after health officials linked products containing recalled cucumbers supplied to the company to a multistate cyclosporiasis outbreak in the United States.

Earlier this week, the CDC announced an investigation into more than 400 cases in Michigan, Ohio, West Virginia and Kentucky.
