Many parents are confused about the current egg recall, especially since the recalled eggs from Wright County Eggs were sold under so many different brand names across the country. Remember that these eggs may be contaminated with Salmonella and could cause diarrhea and other salmonella symptoms if eaten.
Do you have recalled eggs, which now include 380 million eggs since the egg recall was expanded today? You might if you bought eggs with the brand name:
- Albertsons in dozen and 18-egg cartons size large eggs in California or Colorado
- Bayview in 5-dozen egg cartons size large eggs
- Boomsma's in dozen egg cartons size large eggs
- Dutch Farms in dozen egg cartons size large eggs distributed at Walgreens stores in Iowa, Minnesota, Kansas, Nebraska, Missouri, South Dakota and Arkansas, although the majority of Dutch Farms eggs are not affected by the recall
- Farm Fresh in dozen and 18-egg carton size M to Jumbo eggs
- Hillandale in 18-egg carton size XL eggs
- Kemps in dozen egg cartons size large eggs
- Lucerne in dozen and 18-egg cartons size large eggs (Safeway store brand)
- Lund in 6-egg, dozen and 18-egg cartons size M to Jumbo eggs
- Mountain Dairy in 5-dozen egg cartons size medium eggs
- Mountain Dairy in dozen and 18-egg cartons size large eggs
- Nulaid in 5-dozen egg cartons size medium eggs
- Ralph's in dozen and 18-egg cartons size large eggs
- Shoreland in dozen egg cartons size XL and Jumbo eggs
- Sunshine in dozen egg cartons size XL eggs
- Sun Valley in 5-dozen egg cartons size medium eggs
- Trafficanda in dozen egg cartons size M to Jumbo eggs
You can also check the Julian dates, which range from 136 to 225, and the plant numbers, including P-1026, P-1413, and P-1946, to see if your brand of eggs were recalled. The label will be in the format of plant number followed by the Julian date, such as P-1946 223 (see the image above). You can also see this list of affected brands and descriptions of recalled eggs for more information.
Recalled eggs were sold at a variety of stores, including Food 4 Less, Foodsco, Ralphs, Walgreens, Safeway and a number of other stores. Keep in mind that the recalled eggs could also have been a part of egg dishes, cakes, and other foods that contain raw or undercooked eggs that were served in restaurants that had the recalled eggs.
You should be especially careful and be sure to check labels if you bought any of these brands of eggs in California, Colorado, and Minnesota, where many of the Salmonella cases have been discovered, although experts are also investigating cases in Arizona, Connecticut, Massachusetts, Maryland, North Carolina, Nevada, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Tennessee and Texas.
To be safe, in addition to not eating recalled eggs, parents should be sure that their kids don't eat raw or undercooked eggs or foods that contain raw or undercooked eggs. Parents should also be careful to discard cracked or dirty eggs, keep eggs refrigerated at less than or equal than 45˚ F, and to not keep eggs at room temperature for more than two hours.

All this talk about Bad Eggs… I went searching online and found this one. Been around for almost a year and no one mentioned it yet on the news… http://www.facebook.com/people/Egg-Finger/100000898890889
We buy our eggs at Sams Club and pleased to see they are not on the recall list.

you mean “YET” . Makes me nervous. All the recalls.
who in the heck saves their egg cartons?????????? Guess they need to print this info on the actual eggs themselves. Hey BarryO get on that. We need you for something:-).
I bet the Obama’s fault. He trying to kill us anyway he can. Wether it be taxing us to death or egg poisining
I buy my eggs from kroger foods here in no central Texas. and they are processed in prosper TX,I found no plant numbers matching those given on the recall.I love fried eggs and could eat them three times a day.You gotta cook em real done to kill bacteria on or in them.I like some of the yoke to run but not to runny.
are wilcox eggs on the recall list?
Last friday i made a big stack of brownies n bought eggs from sunshine with the brand name sunshine n still have 3 left in my fridge def not being touched after all we went thru after eatin those brownies. we got very sick an couldnt figure out y. then on thurs it came on the news that the eggs we bought are bad. g this info could of been useful before i baked with them. n of course as my bf weres his deputy badge proudly lol well his brain wasnt working yesterday cuz he ate the last brownie knowing that the eggs were bad in it n even saw it on the news. but yep he ate it n now is complaining he got da sh**s n is working n feeling sick again lol can i say stupid is as stupid does. wow. but the company n the health dep knowing this egg place had many violations n didnt bother shutting it down after the 1st violation. ummmm can we say those ppl sure dont have common sense knowing all the probs in the past bout it. talk bout lazy morons jus didnt wanna take the time to do paperwork n shippin the birds, what lazy ****. thanks alot cuz i have narcolepsy n those eggs were bad n it sent my meds down so i couldnt wake up cuz i was too sick so thanks alot cuz they dont pay my monthly bill of nuvigil which is 400 a month w o insurance but damn good thing ive got insurance. what gets me is this recall shows that theres proof that theres a majority of ppl with no brains for common sense includin my bf def bein proof of it now. but who is to blame for all this recall when it could have been prevented. it b the health inspectors n the moron that still was running an egg farm n being too damn lazy to clean up everytime.
The only hard-cooked egg I will eat is a boiled egg. I like soft-cooked scrambled, omelets, eggs over medium just till the white is done, or soft-boiled three minute eggs. Luckily, we get our eggs at Wal Mart; and they haven’t been mentioned in the recall.

Dumbest comment yet!
Trying to blame the President? Even with largest tax cuts in 30 years. But please don’t tax the rich or corporate giants like agribusiness that poisons us. But govment bad!
eggs at pete’s fresh market are good too….in calumet city ,il
“I bet the Obama’s fault. He trying to kill us anyway he can. Wether it be taxing us to death or egg poisining”
He certainly isn’t spending enough on education.
“Trying to blame the President? Even with largest tax cuts in 30 years. But please don’t tax the rich or corporate giants like agribusiness that poisons us. But govment bad!”
If these kinds of massive recalls and thousands of people getting sick is what we get now, when the USDA, FDA, and CDC have limited resources, but are still able to uncover things like this fairly quickly, what would happen with more ‘limited government’ that the Tea Partiers and GOP call for?
Fortunately, there may already be a fix, as a new Egg Safety Final Rule Plan went into effect for the largest egg producers in July. Hopefully that will help prevent more of these outbreaks from even occurring.
I agree with person said Obama done it, he has almost killed us all off
Hard to believe you are not blaming Bush-he is still being blamed for everything else.
Some one isn’t doing their job. Do the Federal inspectors really inspect anything? What a laugh!!
To LRey, I’m wondering who told you we have the biggest tax cuts in 30 years. Are you kidding? Try that we have spent more federal tax dollars during the Obama Bin Biden debacle than during the last 30 years. Oh and don’t forget Pelosi’s motto, “We have to pass the bill before we can read it!” Do you think everyone is stupid or what?????
I thought this thread was about the egg recall and salmonella! It’s sick how people try to find every excuse possible to blame something on our president. Anyway, good luck with the salmonella everyone.
really skipper, you think Obama is singlehandedly trying to annilate you……you’re NOT THAT SPECIAL? besides I can’t of a good reason he would want to kill off all these hardworking americans who are probably on medi-cal, food stamps, medicare, ssi, unemployment, etc….all those govt funds you are trying to get rid of is what is saving your life right now. Which president went off and lost billions of dollars looking for wmd’s in IRAQ ? who let obama’s family get on an airplane and go back to their country when everything was grounded right after 911? stop listening to one point of view people, and start reading and researching everything you can because you can’t keep blaming Obama for everything bad.
As such of a problem with so many eggs, but you also have think 380 million eggs out of what?…who is in control of these places? Where did these standards go down so succiently to be news compared to only a 100 million?….now in my opinion just cook your eggs scrambled or over done…cause the tempatures reach over 165 which kills the bacteria….no more over-easy for some folks….and isn’t funny that more and more people are having stomach problems either with vomitting or diarreha
Whitehouse says it’s George Bush’s fault
THE CHICKENS ARE ENTERING THEIR FINAL STAGE OF ATTACK! PREPARE FOR THE WORST!
oh, and of course, blame everyone but the compan[y](ies) that sold you the eggs.
heesch family….unless you licked the bowl when you made the brownies, you killed the bacteria when you baked the brownies. Temperature over 180 will do it. And yes, according to the White House today, it’s Bush’s fault.
Ya, lets blame everything on Mr. Obama, that’s brainy. How quickly we’ve forgotten the arrogant, mentally ill, poor lil rich boy f— up punk and tyrant who was placed in the office of president to represent not us but the world’s wealthy/corporately wealthy and the military monsters including his daddy’s vast interests. His best “buddies” and puppeteers, those oh so caring personages, cheney and rove quickly joined the bush cartel to aid it in adding our laws, privacy, rights, freedoms, by all means (!), money, and LIVES (of our far too expendable military personnel) to the cauldron of fecal material stirred 24/7 in the oval office until his ass was booted outta office by a frightened populace. All this creep wanted to do was use us. I’d say that was the one task he succeeded at, that and killing off half the middle east because they were (understandably) unpopular here, had oil and were vulnerable. I could go on yammering (yawn, yawn) but lets just remember that Mr. Obama looks like Jesus Christ next to the boy wonder.
Did this recall on eggs affect Florida – what about Publix

“Whitehouse says it’s George Bush’s fault”
It is probably the Swamp People. I bet they got tired of being stuck in the bayou hunting alligators and this is the beginning of their plans to take over.
To all of you Governmen/President Haters,
I hope that you have had the opportunity to read your own email regarding Obama and the eggs recall. You really sound ignorant. It never cease to amaze me how ignorant some people can be. If you’re lucky perhaps you will eat a contaminated egg and it will cure your diagnosis of ” ignorance Syndrome “.
Don’t forget your flu shots…they’re made using eggs!
All you Bush haters can’t blame this on him yet if BO is blamed you get all defensive and say how lame it sounds! “WELL MAYBE IT’S BEING DONE TO IRK YOUR IRE”! You all are so thin skinned. We all know it was Ron Emmanuel telling BO what to do. HAHAHAHAHAHA
john comment #5. With all do respect, You sound like the typical uneducated tea-tard who just follows the masses. Wake up people the right only want your money, so they can give it too their fellow ceo buddies. Oh yeah and this is why I don’t live in that forsaken mid-west.
I always but my eggs at raley’s. and my mom says i never give you raw or crqcked eggs. lol
Got diarrhea for 2 days from eggs bought from Fresh n Easy in Long Beach, CA
hmm where do i begin…Lets start here Obama bin laden is NOT anything like Jesus at all. More like the Anit-christ which would lead u who doesnt know any better to believe that he is some kind of god…and really the dude aint black like you all want him to be…hes just got a little color on his skin and he dont care about u all either. He works for the muslims he is their puppet and he could care less about black america…talk about someone using you well thats ur case there…He got all ur votes and he knew he could because all you can see is black… nevermind if he is satan himself…wake up and smell the coffee before it gets poisoned too. And all i wanted was to know about my eggs lol….dont bother commenting for my sake i doubt i will read it….
@34 Well where do “I” begin…Let me start by reminding you that your dear EX-president Bush stole the first election…hmmm…(money can buy you anything)and put so much fear in all you narrow minded americans after 9/11 that you guys actually voted for him the second time?! So many of our soldiers have died in the name of…what again? Oh wait, they say ignorance is bliss and all hail to you obama’s mama is white lol…you are living your dream.
get back to eggs. this is not about anything but eggs,
Glad i raise my own chickens and having not to worry about samonella.
Message to John and obamma comment: You can blame him for eggs????? I blame YOU for being an idiot..to make such a stupid comment this is how stupid some people are… I know how about blaming you for being a hemroid
wow people are so ignorant to blame the president ..about the recall on the eggs
wow some people are so ignorant saying is the president fault about the whole recall on the eggs lame!!!!!!
WOW! — Ignorance rears it’s ugly head again, and again, and again. I came on this site looking for recall information — got distracted by ignorant people blaming our president for the tainted eggs. I can only say “I hope all you ignorant, obviously uneducated, throw-backs, make the wise decision to upgrade your education and learn how to think on your own. Pleeeese, remove the gunny sacks off your heads, or before you know it, you will be joining the other ignorant, misled followers of the Tea Party. Obama is the best thing that has happened to “we the people” in a long time.
Boy.. never was so many idots in one room…. get your facts about the bacteria, and the difference, between cooked and uncooked eggs…. baked brownies, and got deathly ill….. with people like you , your mind is your worse enemy…. the best for you people is , someone should take you off the shelf, and toss you in the trash, before it spreads to someone else…..
I think the real concern should be the problems caused by beef. The “big guy’s” work hard to keep this one on the hush hush. Eggs are the least of anyones worries over (BSE), commonly known as mad-cow disease.
…..wow people…. I must say this [egg recall] has nothing to do with the government. And you all sound like morons… none of your statements are facts, maybe you should read more… or maybe watch the news, listen to the radio do something. It seems like none of you can spell or compose an intelligible post to begin with, stop using the internet!
