Costco Recalls Over 10,000 Cases of Eggs Due to Salmonella Risk
Handsome Brook Farms recalled Kirkland Signature organic eggs after discovering a packaging error that could lead to contamination.
- The recall affects 10,800 cases of Kirkland Signature Organic Pasture-Raised 24-count eggs, distributed to Costco stores in five Southern states.
- The eggs, with a use-by date of January 5, 2025, were not intended for retail sale but were mistakenly packaged for retail distribution.
- No illnesses have been reported, but customers are advised to return the eggs to Costco for a refund or dispose of them immediately.
- Salmonella infection can cause symptoms like diarrhea, fever, and stomach cramps, with higher risks for young children, elderly adults, and those with weakened immune systems.
- Handsome Brook Farms is implementing additional supply chain controls and retraining to prevent similar errors in the future.
