This title breaks my brain, I non-jokingly googled fettuccine to make sure I wasn't losing my mind. English is that hard for CNN?
`Walmart meatball meals may be linked to deadly Listeria outbreak.`
`Meatball meals from Walmart suspected in deadly Listeria outbreak.`
Edit: The craziest part is this has nothing to do with "fettuccine", as per the article:
"The U.S. Agriculture Department issued a public health alert late Thursday for Marketside Linguine with Beef Meatballs & Marinara Sauce sold in refrigerated 12-ounce clear plastic trays."
An outbreak of … noodles?
Yeah, like Strega Nona the kids book where a magic pasta pot floods a town with pasta.

Why is this on Hacker News?
A16z funded the listeria startup
Big fettuccini's noodly appendage is deep in the pockets of A16z

Was the entire article written by an LLM?
This HN title absolutely needs to be fixed; removing the "in" between "found" and "Walmart" makes it nonsensical.
to be frank, it reads like Rottingham[0] and it made me giggle a bit: "King illegal forest to pig wild kill in it a is!"

Listeria found Walmart meatball meals may be linked deadly fettuccine outbreak
Never knew listeria bacteria had such investigating prowess, nor that there's a deadly transmissive disease sharing the name of the popular pasta.
I jest of course, though the current CNN headline, which isn't missing the "in", still sounds weird to me.
It's also missing a "to".
Edit: the current CNN title for me is "Listeria found in Walmart meatball meals may be linked to deadly fettuccine outbreak".
Seems I was so fascinated by the mental images the headline created I completely missed that one.
One could be dumb-found as to why something couldn’t be listeria-found.
