Cyclospora outbreak: Is it still safe to eat at restaurants? Here's what to know

While federal investigators continue to search for the source of the ongoing cyclospora outbreak, many people may be wondering what they should order when dining out.

Cyclospora is a microscopic parasite known to cause cyclosporiasis, Fox News Digital previously reported. The hallmark symptom of the infection is watery, "explosive" diarrhea that can last for weeks or even months if left untreated, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

Cyclosporiasis is often caused by consuming contaminated produce.
