SALMONELLA OUTBREAK (JUNE 2025)
Nebraska residents: On June 6, 2025, CDC posted an advisory for people to not eat, sell, or serve recalled eggs sold by the August Egg Company due to Salmonella. The contaminated eggs were distributed from February 3, 2025, through May 6, 2025, with sell by dates from March 4, 2025, to June 19, 2025, to various Walmart locations around Nebraska. Images of the egg cartons can be found at the bottom of the FDA Product Recall webpage.
The FDA has provided the following recommendations:
- Consumers, restaurants, and retailers should not eat, sell, or serve recalled brown cage free and brown certified organic eggs from August Egg Company.
- Consumers, restaurants, and retailers who purchased or received the recalled eggs, including wholesale eggs, should carefully clean and sanitize any surfaces or containers that they touched.
- Check your refrigerators for the recalled brown cage free and brown certified organic eggs and throw them away or return them to the place of purchase. If you stored the eggs without the original packaging and can’t tell if it is part of this outbreak, throw them away.
- Wash hands, utensils, and surfaces with hot, soapy water before and after handling raw eggs and raw egg-containing foods. Follow FDA’s safe handling and cleaning advice and use extra care in cleaning and sanitizing any surfaces and containers that may have come in contact with this product to reduce the risk of cross-contamination.
- Contact your healthcare provider if you think you may have developed symptoms (e.g., diarrhea, fever, abdominal cramps) of a Salmonella infection, after eating eggs.
