SALT LAKE CITY (AP) -- Health officials will soon know whether a Utah man hospitalized with E. coli is part of an outbreak linked to Taco Bell restaurants.
Lab results will be available tomorrow.
Health officials say the unidentified man travels extensively and ate at several restaurants in California during the time period of suspected contamination.
The man was hospitalized last month and is now recovering at home.
Taco Bell removed green onions from its 5,800 restaurants nationwide after tests suggested the bacteria may have come from scallions.
