Farm Had Evidence of Filth Before Egg Recall

There was evidence of filth at the farm before the massive egg recall. FDA inspections found an ongoing rodent infestation, dirty equipment, a swarm of “large flying insects too numerous to count.”

The unsanitary conditions allowed for the “proliferation and spread of filth and pathogens throughout the facility that could cause the contamination of egg processing equipment and eggs,” according to the FDA.

Salmonella Food Poisoning

Salmonella can cause severe food poisoning, diarrhea, fever, and abdominal cramps. The symptoms usually appear within 72 hours of eating contaminated food, and last for 4-7 days. Salmonella infections can also spread to the bloodstream and cause death.
