- An outbreak of norovirus among the students at Northwestern is tied to a $1 burrito promotion.
- The Evanston Department of Health say the outbreak is linked to Big Wig Tacos & Burritos.
- Shortly the $1 burrito deal, dozens of students complained of vomiting, diarrhea, and stomach cramps.
When a local Evanston eatery advertised $1 burritos for students, deal-seeking undergrads rushed in to fill their bellies — only to soon empty them again.
The $1 burrito promotion offered by local "no-frills" Mexican restaurant Big Wig Tacos & Burritos on November 18 has reportedly triggered a minor outbreak of norovirus among Northwestern University's student body.
