Woke nonsense. A real Trumper would eat them by the dozen!
Eggs from the deregulated red run states. The f’n MAGAts should be gobbling them down for supporting their BS.
Isn’t there a vaccine that chickens can be given to prevent this?
I thought the thumbnail was teeth.
The targeted egg cartons were sold in 25 Costco stores in Alabama, Georgia, North Carolina, South Carolina and Tennessee beginning Nov. 22.
The “Organic Pasture Raised” eggs, sold in sets of 24, have a Universal Product Code (UPC) of 9661910680 with a use-by date of Jan 5, 2025.
Relevant info for those in a hurry
How are we as a society ever going to overcome Salmonella if we recall these foods? We need to build up natural immunity! These should stay on the shelves. I hope RJK jr is on this, as it’s probably the greatest threat to the nation.
i say rfk should personally take on testing all the eggs for salmonella and only after hes hand inspected them can they be sold. i only trust the real experts to handle my eggs
RFK suckin eggs to keep you safe.
Salmonella and eggs are still a problem in Europe, but not a significantly bigger one than in the U.S., so maybe we should stop bothering to wash our eggs so we don’t have to keep space in our fridges for them any more?
I’m thinking it’s more related to their appearance. Murrikans just like the look of washed eggs.
All grocery stores around here have no eggs, I think due to H5N1.
Then why did we elect the Orange Clown?
You can’t enjoy the warmth of a dumpster fire, without the dumpster.
We only had enough trash to sustain a dumpster fire for one year but by some miracle it’s been stretched to 8 years.
Happy Donukkah!
Isn’t Salmonella killed by cooking? Don’t have runny eggs.
Yes but the endotoxin, produced by the bacteria, which gives you the gut cramping and vomiting, is not removed by cooking. In other words, cooking doesn’t remove what makes you sick even if it kills bacteria and viruses.
About 1 in 20,000 eggs in the US contains Salmonella. With proper precautions (basic hygiene and cooking to a high temperature of a bit over 70°C), this risk isn’t high. In fact, it’s estimated that the risk eating cooked eggs is a few orders of magnitude lower than raw eggs – about 1 in 68 billion. However, when you absolutely know that you have eggs in a range that have an extremely high risk of Salmonella, this idea is just stupid and not at all worth even the relatively low risk, because the problem you likely run into isn’t the safety of the cooked food – it’s the safety of the handling of the food as you’re preparing it. If your next grocery trip is a ways out, the eggs might spoil, but the UPC is what Costco cares about here. If you can’t be bothered, then you should probably just toss them.
Also, as gross as I think it is, some people eat raw eggs for various reasons.
It’s an eggnog time of year! … Does rum kill salmonella?

It’s called soap.
You’re being downvoted but that’s almost certainly where the risk is - people not washing their hands after touching the eggs. As someone with our own hens, we’re 100% used to having to wash our hands after handling eggs, but most people we know are blithely unaware of the risk.
Costco eggs are the worst. Thin shells really weird runny yolks. They creeper us out, both the regular and organic.
Most costco food is a bit terrifying, bit these were the most obviously scary. Why anyone would but them twice is beyond me.
You might have gotten grade A eggs, which are more used for things like baking and recipes where the egg is blended in with something to where it’s more used as a binder. Them being cheaper due to a lower grade while still achieving the same end product and with the bulk amount small restaurants/bakeries would buy at any one time, it makes sense that Costco would sell them.
AA graded eggs are what you and most other are likely used to, as they are more intended for being ‘prepared’ as a primary ingredient like for a scramble, an omelet or even poaching.
They are older and cheaply sourced.
You can tell their freshness and the thin shells and extremely pale yolk tells me about their feed.
Funny that I say they are not good, and people don’t seem to like that in a discussion about how these eggs could kill you. Lol.
They just make eggs different at Costco. :p
I promise that Costco assembles theirs from only the highest quality chicken parts. Leg eggs being their best and most expensive. You’re buying wing eggs, which are known to be cost savers so poor folks can eat too.
Welcome to Costco. I love you!
