“Meet Bruce Taylor, of Taylor Farms. This man makes huge contributions to Trump so his lettuce is never inspected. So far, this man has given us E. coli, and cyclospora. He does NOT allow his lettuce pickers to take bathroom breaks. Kroger brand lettuce is actually Taylor’s, as is Sysco’s— which supplies a large percentage of restaurants in the US‼️ 2026 cyclosporiasis outbreak: In 2026, Taylor Farms was linked to a cyclosporiasis outbreak from iceberg lettuce supplied to Taco Bell. As of July 2026, the outbreak was the largest in the U.S. since 1997, including 7,000 confirmed cases and 141 hospitalizations. EARTHBOUND FARMS ORGANIC SALAD MIXES and ORGANIC GIRL also owned by Taylor. Never buy from this criminal again. The only way we’re going to shut him down. We certainly can’t count on our current “government” to do anything.”
Summary
Bruce Taylor is the founder and CEO of Taylor Farms, but there is no evidence he makes large contributions to Donald Trump or that his produce is exempt from inspection. Taylor Farms has been linked to a 2026 cyclospora outbreak, not to E. coli, and no credible reports confirm that workers are denied bathroom breaks, that Kroger or Sysco lettuce comes from Taylor Farms, or that the outbreak involved 7,000 cases and 141 hospitalizations. Earthbound Farms is owned by Taylor Farms, but ownership of Organic Girl is not substantiated.
