Hi, I know this is a couple days old so sorry if it was posted already, but just incase anyone missed it there is a pretty big Egg recall because of Salmonella (actually 2 now)
http://www.fda.gov/Safety/Recalls/ucm222501.htm is the first one

http://www.fda.gov/NewsEvents/Newsroom/PressAnnouncements/ucm223248.htm is the 2nd one/update
the full release is at the link but here is where/what are affected
Hillandale Farms of Iowa, Inc. and Wright County Egg in Iowa.
What Does the Product Look Like?
Shell eggs under the August 13, 2010 recall are packaged under the brand names: Lucerne, Albertson, Mountain Dairy, Ralph’s, Boomsma’s, Sunshine, Hillandale, Trafficanda, Farm Fresh, Shoreland, Lund, Dutch Farms and Kemps. Shell eggs are packed in 6-egg cartons, 12-egg cartons, 18-egg cartons, and loose eggs with Julian dates ranging from 136 to 225 and plant numbers 1026, 1413 and 1946.

Recalled shell eggs affected by the expanded recall are packaged under the brand names: Albertsons, Farm Fresh, James Farms, Glenview, Mountain Dairy, Ralphs, Boomsma, Lund, Kemps and Pacific Coast. Eggs are packed in varying sizes of cartons (6-egg, 12-egg, and18-egg cartons, and loose eggs for institutional use and repackaging) with Julian dates ranging from 136 to 229 and plant numbers 1720 and 1942.

Dates and codes can be found stamped on the end of the egg carton or printed on the case label. The plant number begins with the letter P and then the number. The Julian date follows the plant number, for example: P-1720 223.


Where is it Distributed?
The recall affects eggs shipped since May 16, 2010 were sent to food wholesalers, distribution centers and foodservice companies in California, Illinois, Missouri, Colorado, Nebraska, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Arizona, Texas, Georgia, Washington, Oregon, Nevada, Utah, Arkansas, Oklahoma and Iowa.
 
Wow, am I brainwashed or what. I saw the subject line on this and was trying to figure out what the acronym "EGG" stood for. I work for the Government, and have encountered endless acronyms all day long for years. So whenever I see a word capitalized like that I always assume its an acronym. For this one I was figuring "Electronic" for the "E", but could not figure out what the two "G's" stood for, so I opened the message, then realized it was about the Chicken type egg recall. At any rate I live in Maryland just outside the Beltway, and went to my favorite Diner (Nick's Diner) for breakfast this morning. I got an omelet with no problems so I guess no recall in this area. I guess next I need to go to a de-brainwashing place to clear my head.

Lol, Dan, I had the exact same reaction. I stared at it and thought, What the heck is an EGG? :confused2:
Thanks for the info, Lyn.
