Egg Brands Recalled Following Salmonella Outbreak Affecting Nine States, CDC Reports

Milo’s Poultry Farms LLC has issued a recall for its egg brands “Milo’s Poultry Farms” and “Tony’s Fresh Market” after a salmonella outbreak sickened at least 65 people across nine states, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) announced.

The recall, initiated on Friday, affects all products sold under these brands, with no specified expiration dates.

The affected eggs were distributed to stores and restaurants in Michigan, Wisconsin, and Illinois, but the outbreak has spread beyond these states, with cases reported in Virginia, Iowa, Minnesota, Colorado, Utah, and California. Of the reported cases, 24 individuals have been hospitalized, though no deaths have occurred.

Salmonella, a bacteria that can cause symptoms such as vomiting, dehydration, and fever, is especially dangerous for children and the elderly. The CDC urges consumers to discard or return any eggs from the recalled brands and thoroughly clean any surfaces that may have come into contact with the eggs.

The recall was initiated after the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) found positive salmonella samples during an investigation at Milo’s Poultry Farms’ facilities in Bonduel, Wisconsin. The outbreak has been linked to contamination at both a hen-laying house and a packing facility. All production at the farm has since been halted while sanitization and further testing take place.

Milo’s Poultry Farms is a family-run business that has paused operations in response to the recall. Consumers with questions or concerns are encouraged to contact the farm directly.

This recall follows a summer of foodborne illness outbreaks, including a listeria incident that led to a recall of seven million pounds of deli meat. Health officials are continuing to investigate the current salmonella outbreak.
