What do you think?

Answer 2

how is that any of your business

Answer 3

Because the restaurants have discretionary rights. You do too if you eat there and get sick, you can sue.

Answer 4

Your news station would have reported it if they'd known.

Health officials probably didn't release the information because all the tainted tomatoes had been pulled and there was no danger of further contamination.  No reason to drag a restaurant's name through the mud.

(By the way - the tomatoes aren't the restaurants fault.  They were likely grown in an area where sewage was allowed to leech onto the field.  Then they're harvested and were distributed in the food chain.  Only later was it discovered they were causing illness.)
