This would lead me to believe this 1 grading facility is grading/packaging 6 million eggs or 500,000 dozen eggs in a single day

Ok, I seen this one and thought 'doesn't cooking them negate this risk?'

I mean, this is why they say don't eat cookie dough, right? But as long as you're cooking your eggs fully you should be fine?

As you can tell my degree is not in food sciences...

Not just for the eggs, raw flour too. 

Any thoughts on this from the statement:

 

"...swabs, taken from non-food contact surfaces such as floor drains, floor cracks, and drip pans, tested positive for salmonella. Many days later the FDA issued a statement about the findings which lacked thorough details causing some to question the safety of our eggs. Most importantly, all of our eggs tested negative for salmonella and showed no signs of contamination."

I was expecting this to be the cooked pasta recall...

 

 

AND this isn't on the FDA site, ,yet

NO ONE testing actual eggs for salmonella   It's 100% environmental testing so the statement

 

"none of our eggs tested positive" rings pretty hollow to me

I was expecting this to be the cooked pasta recall...

 

 

AND this isn't on the FDA site, ,yet

aren't they are temporarily furloughed due to the (ya know) goings on?  I know front line won't be affected.......

The FDa is still theoretically still working, but I don't understand how Newsweek gets better updates than I can.

Not if you have them soft boiled or other ways you like runny yolks.

 

There was a HUGE scandal in the UK in the 80s about salmonella in eggs, so much so it almost destroyed the egg industry here.  So they acted.  Brought in vaccination for "Lion" eggs (most eggs sold in the UK which are coded with a date and a Lion logo) and also on farm controls etc.

 

Now even high risk groups are told that runny yolks are safe to eat here.

I'm permanently baffled more countries don't do the same.  The vaccination alone must actually save money through not losing birds for a start.

From what I understand, the websites are not currently being managed, but the FDA is still active.

This one came out a few weeks ago. I did get it through an email from the FDA or through food safety news.

It's coming to Canada        the difference here is the growers hold ALL the cards, and the grading station has none...............

Currently not enough vaccination to go around, so first step is vaccine manufacturing, followed by poult vaccination--CAN'T COME SOON ENOUGH

I just received this update last night that ANOTHER retailer has had to recall a pasta product because of the affected pasta plant:  Sprouts Farmers Market is Recalling Smoked Mozzarella Pasta Salad Because of Possible Health Risk | FDA

 

The overall outbreak linked to this pasta has been updated with the Sprouts announcement:  2025 Recalls of Prepared Pasta Meals (Frozen and Ready-To-Eat) Due to Potential Listeria monocytogenes Contamination | FDA

 

But keep in mind the FDA site isn't listing all of the USDA regulated items that contain the affected pasta either, so this is larger than only looking at the FDA's website.  More and more, the reaching effects of this pasta issue are starting to remind me of the Boar's Head recall.

It was on the Enforcement Report email I received yesterday.  https://www.accessda...es/?Event=97655

 

It was also on the Daily Digest Bulletin sent 9/30. 

So the eggs prices will go back up to $15/dozen?
