At least 46 confirmed cases of E. coli sickness linked to Taco Bell have been reported in New Jersey, New York and Pennsylvania. Steve Dickstein, marketing vice president for Irwindale, Calif.-based Ready Pac, one of the nation's leading produce packers, said the scallions came from Boskovich, "although the investigation continues as to whether they were contaminated."
