Over 6 million eggs were recalled in several U.S. states after the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) issued warnings about potential salmonella contamination.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The products of both Black Sheep Egg Company and Kenz Henz have been recalled, the agency’s revised notice stated.<\/p>\n
The recall started on September 29, when Black Sheep voluntarily removed hundreds of thousands of egg cartons from stores after FDA testing discovered seven types of salmonella in 40 samples produced by its Arkansas processing plant. On October 17, the FDA broadened the advisory after Kenz Henz recalled its 12-count egg cartons.<\/p>\n
To date, no illnesses have been reported in association with the involved batches. The FDA however advises that most of the recalled eggs are likely still present in homes, restaurants, and retail outlets.<\/p>\n
The below items are part of the ongoing recall:<\/p>\n
The recall by Black Sheep Egg Company involves shipments shipped to Arkansas, Missouri, Texas, California, and Indiana from July 9, 2025, to September 17, 2025. Since a lot of these eggs were distributed to wholesalers, others were rebranded by other brands, increasing the possibility of extended sales in other states.<\/p>\n
The FDA continues to investigate and will expand the recall list if additional potentially tainted products are found.<\/p>\n
The FDA recommends consumers, restaurants, and retailers to stop selling, serving, or consuming any recalled eggs right away.<\/p>\n

The FDA is continuing to collaborate with both Black Sheep Egg Company and Kenz Henz in order to remove all of the impacted products from the marketplace.<\/p>\n Consumers should check FDA recall notices on a regular basis and follow safe food handling techniques to avoid illness.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Over 6 million eggs were recalled in several U.S. states after the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) issued warnings about potential salmonella contamination.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":112363,"featured_media":166508,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[31],"tags":[68317,66753,68315,50201,40306,68392,38043,68316],"class_list":{"0":"post-166507","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-news","8":"tag-black-sheep-egg-company","9":"tag-cdc","10":"tag-egg-recall","11":"tag-fda","12":"tag-food-safety","13":"tag-kenz-henz","14":"tag-public-health","15":"tag-salmonella"},"yoast_head":"\n\n
