Seems the source has been traced to a village in Mexico. The village is near a pig farming enterprise, US owned Smithfield. Smithfield has been fined in the US for exceeding pollution limits. (Acceptable pollution limits are disgusting enough, but exceeding them?) The pig farm is not proved as the origin - just seems very likely. I would not count on proof as favorable conclusions can certainly be paid for.
