US Edition2 Egg Brands Recalled for Possible Salmonella Contamination
The recall affects eggs with best-by dates from October 11 to 17 after 40 environmental samples tested positive for Salmonella at the processing facility, FDA said.
- This month, the FDA announced a recall of 12-count Grade AA Large Pasture Raised eggs by Kenz Henz of Santa Fe, Texas, sold in Houston, Texas, due to potential salmonella contamination.
- After an FDA inspection, officials found 40 environmental samples at Black Sheep Egg Company, processing facility positive for Salmonella, including seven different strains, and recalls followed that inspection this year.
- Packaging details show recalled cartons carry UPC code 86949400030 or UPC codes 860010568507 and 860010568538, with best-by date ranges 10/11 to 10/14 and 10/16 to 10/17.
- Health authorities warn that no illnesses have been reported, but the CDC cautions children under 5, adults 65 and older, and people with weakened immune systems may face severe illness; surfaces should be sanitized and healthcare providers contacted for severe symptoms.
- The recall has been expanded because federal watchdogs determined Black Sheep Egg Company distributed eggs in Arkansas and Missouri earlier this year that may have been repackaged, adding to a multistate recall of more than 6 million eggs.
