‘Egg beaters,' ‘Bob Evans' liquid eggs recalled; may contain cleaning solution: USDA
(WJW) – More than 200,000 pounds of liquid egg products are being recalled nationwide because they may contain a cleaning solution with a chemical commonly used for bleaching, warns the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS).
The recall comes from Cargill Kitchen Solutions, based in Lake Odessa, Michigan, and applies to four products sold under the labels or logos of 'Egg Beaters' and 'Bob Evans.' The FSIS said the products were shipped to distributor locations in Ohio and Texas and for food service use in Arizona, California, Colorado, Florida, Illinois and Iowa.

The liquid egg products, which were sold in 32-ounce cartons, may contain a cleaning solution with sodium hypochlorite, according to FSIS. The National Library of Medicine states sodium hypochlorite is a chlorine compound often used as a 'disinfectant or a bleaching agent' and is 'commonly known as bleach' when dissolved in water.
'The problem was discovered when FSIS received a tip about the potential contamination of these products. After conducting an investigation and thorough assessment of the contents of the cleaning solution, FSIS scientists concluded that use of this product should not cause adverse health consequences, or the risk is negligible, resulting in a Class III recall,' states the FSIS.
A Class III recall is the FSIS's lowest-risk classification, defined as a 'marginal risk.'
No adverse reactions have been reported, and no adverse health effects are expected, the FSIS said. However, anyone concerned about a related illness should contact a healthcare provider, the FSIS advised.

A Nationwide Recall Affecting Thousands of Pounds of Beef Tallow Was Just Issued—Here's What to Know
A Nationwide Recall Affecting Thousands of Pounds of Beef Tallow Was Just Issued—Here's What to Know originally appeared on Parade. Beef tallow becoming the hottest food trend was not on my 2025 bingo card, but here we are. Everywhere you look these days, the byproduct of cooked cow's kidney and loin meat is being touted as a miracle fat worthy of both frying the best French fries you've ever had and slathering on your face as part of a game-changing skincare routine. Restaurants are switching to using it in favor of seed oils, and there are even protein bars chock-full of the stuff, but how did we get here? Can it really hydrate your skin better than Tatcha's The Dewy Skin Cream, and is it really better than using seed oils? 😋😋SIGN UP to get delicious recipes, handy kitchen hacks & more in our daily Pop Kitchen newsletter🍳🍔 The jury's still out on both of those claims, but that hasn't stopped influencers and government officials alike from singing its praises as the equivalent of this century's gold rush. Never mind the fact that beef tallow was heavily abandoned during the early 90s due to its high concentration of saturated fat, or the fact that there is no real scientific evidence that suggests that beef tallow has any actual benefits for your skin. Sure, everything is fine in moderation, and you can bet it'll make for some finger-licking good fries, but it probably won't cure your hyperpigmentation, will, however, make you smell like a burger, and if that sounds like a plus, by all means, you do you. Of course, you might second-guess reaching for that giant tub of beef fat when you see that the FDA has issued a nationwide recall on beef tallow and pork lard products due to claims that products distributed across the country were not inspected by the USDA. Sulu Organics, LLC., a distributor in Illinois, issued a recall on 6,166 pounds of its products after several consumer complaints were made to FSIS claiming that the products did not bear the USDA inspection mark. Upon further investigation, FSIS determined that the distributor purchased the products from a regulated facility and repackaged the products into smaller containers that were relabeled without FSIS inspections. Although there have been no reports of illness or adverse reactions, consumers are urged to discard any affected products or return them to the point of purchase for a full refund. You can find the complete list of items affected by the recall here. We think we'll just stick to olive oil.A Nationwide Recall Affecting Thousands of Pounds of Beef Tallow Was Just Issued—Here's What to Know first appeared on Parade on Jun 6, 2025 This story was originally reported by Parade on Jun 6, 2025, where it first appeared.

15,000 Pounds of Beef Jerky and Snack Sticks Recalled due to Labeling Issue—Here's What to Know
15,000 Pounds of Beef Jerky and Snack Sticks Recalled due to Labeling Issue—Here's What to Know originally appeared on Parade. This might not be a unique take, but I love a dried snack stick the same way Cookie Monster loves cookies. My favorite happens to be Duke's Hot and Spicy Smoked Shorty Sausages, you know, in case anyone ever wants to get me a gift, but that's not what we're here to talk about today. Jerky, biltong, pastirma, or simply a Slim Jim is the ultimate grab-and-go snack full of protein and punchy flavor when you can't be bothered to put together an entire snack plate. Sure, they may not be for everyone, but that just means there's more for those of us whose palate is refined and sophisticated enough to appreciate the artistry behind such a premium meat product. 😋😋SIGN UP to get delicious recipes, handy kitchen hacks & more in our daily Pop Kitchen newsletter🍳🍔 As someone who considers themselves well-versed in the world of beef jerky, I can say with confidence that there aren't too many I haven't tried. Some are spicy enough to make your insides burn, and others are milder with a subtle smokiness almost akin to that of good barbecue. Whatever your preference for jerky is, there are a few ingredients that happen to make their way into a majority of the smoked meat products we purchased, and Worcestershire sauce is one of famously difficult-to-pronounce sauce is known to typically consist of anchovies as a main ingredient, but in more commercial settings, anchovies are usually left out due to being a potential allergen. Unfortunately, for over 15,000 pounds of beef jerky and snack sticks from Springville Meat & Cold Storage Co., Inc., they were just recalled due to omitting anchovies as a trace ingredient on the label. The recall was initiated after FSIS discovered that the Worcestershire sauce used by the Utah-based company does, in fact, contain anchovies. Delicious? Yes, but not worth risking a potential allergic reaction. The full list of products affected can be found on the FSIS recall announcement, although some notable brands include Dry Lakes Ranch Beef, Idaho City Grocery, Jeff's Famous Beef Jerky, Last Stop Gourmet, Spear F. Cattle Co., Smokehouse Jerky Co., Twisselman Outfitters, Uncommon Ground, and Wild Green Water Ranch. The impacted products were produced from May 30, 2023, to May 30, 2025, and there are currently 'no confirmed reports of adverse reactions due to consumption' of the company's products, per FSIS. Additionally, the FSIS added that any product with establishment number 'EST. 20528' in the USDA mark of inspection is subject to the recall. It goes without saying that if you've purchased the affected product, it's best not to consume it (however tempting it may be) and discard or return the product to the point of purchase for a full refund.15,000 Pounds of Beef Jerky and Snack Sticks Recalled due to Labeling Issue—Here's What to Know first appeared on Parade on Jun 6, 2025 This story was originally reported by Parade on Jun 6, 2025, where it first appeared.

Local families head to DC to fight Medicaid cuts
CLEVELAND (WJW) — As the battle over the proposed budget bill continues in the nation's capital, local families are preparing to go to Washington to meet directly with lawmakers to advocate for the preservation of Medicaid. The U.S. House of Representatives has already passed the sweeping budget bill that reportedly cuts $600 billion from Medicaid and would eventually reduce enrollment by millions. Missing 7-year-old paddleboarder found, and he only had one question New Franklin mother Wendy Wilson is planning to go to Washington with her daughter Mia, 14, representing University Hospitals Rainbow Babies & Children's Hospital. Since birth, Mia has had a critical heart defect called Ebstein's anomaly. Wendy said she wasn't able to be repaired, meaning her heart is not fixed. More than once she was at risk of dying. Although she does enjoy activities including boating, going to concerts and just having fun, Mia is on a daily routine that includes breathing treatments twice a day, feeding tubes and about 40 doses of medication every day. Her mother left her work when Mia was young so she could care for her. Her father has a good job with insurance, but Mia's condition keeps them from getting any other insurance. 'I haven't checked recently, but the last time I checked, it was around $5,000 a month for just her medicine,' said Wendy. That does not include all of the additional costs. They qualified for assistance through Medicaid through a state program that picks up a large portion of the cost. Without it, Wendy said they could be at risk of losing their home. Akron Children's Hospital will be represented in Akron by Stephanie Hill of Twinsburg and her 2-year-old daughter Amaiyah. At 17 months old, Amaiyah accidentally swallowed some baby oil while she was taking a bath. Although it did not immediately show signs of significantly impacting the toddler, within a short time, she started to experience breathing problems and was eventually admitted to Akron Children's Hospital where she spent 152 days. During that time, her condition became so serious that there was consideration of Amaiyah needing a double lung transplant. 'As we were waiting to hear back from her insurance, we got word that they denied it, but that very same day was the day she started getting better and better,' said Stephanie. In February, Amaiyah was released from the hospital. On Friday — having celebrated her second birthday just this week — she appeared to have suffered no ill effects from that episode. Without Medicaid, she may not have had access to the health care that helped her recover. Remains found in search for missing teen last seen at airport Chris Gessner, CEO of Akron Children's Hospital, said about 54% of the patients at his hospital are helped by Medicaid, which he believes is about the norm across the state. 'I think its been proven, evidence-based, that kids who have access to high quality health care services do much better long-term and and the Medicaid program is wonderful from a benefit perspective in terms of what it covers,' Gessner said. 'It would be a real problem for us. I mean, with over half of our business with Medicaid, we pay a lot of attention when they start talking about Medicaid cuts,' Gessner told FOX 8 News. 'From my perspective, we understand the need to balance the budget and be responsible with resources, but we really don't want to see that done by cutting into the future of our country — our kids' health,' he added. As the debate over Medicaid cuts continues in Washington, he hopes federal lawmakers understand how the program has a direct impact on the welfare of young lives. When discussing the budget bill, President Donald Trump has defended the need to make cuts to Medicaid. 'The only thing we are cutting is waste, fraud and abuse from Medicaid,' Trump said, discussing his 'big beautiful bill' on May 30. Among the lawmakers who the Hill family knows they will be speaking with directly is Ohio's Republican Sen. Jon Husted, who was appointed to fill the term of now Vice President J.D. Vance. FOX 8 News reached out to Husted's office on Wednesday and was sent a written statement which reads: 'We need to save Medicaid. And saving Medicaid means you have to make it financially sustainable. We want to make sure that children, people with disabilities and the people who are really in need have this program available to them. To do that, able-bodied, healthy Americans without dependents have to give back to their communities in return for the benefits they're getting. America has a $36 trillion national debt, so we have to be smart about finding savings in order to protect these programs.' Participating in a Democratic news conference about Medicaid on May 20, U.S. Rep. Shontel Brown of Cleveland said she will do everything within her power to preserve the program. 'In my state of Ohio, the state government has already said that if these cuts are enacted under state law, they would end the Affordable Care Act Medicaid expansion in our state, so what does that mean? It means 770,000 people will lose their health care. That's an entire congressional district in just one state. This is suffering on a massive scale and it's going to hurt people of all backgrounds,' said Brown. Sobriety checkpoints Friday: Here's where in Northeast Ohio Next week's trip to Washington, D.C., is sponsored by the Children's Hospital Association, an organization that represents 150 hospitals across the country. It is an annual trip the organization schedules each year, giving each member hospital the opportunity to nominate one family as their representative. Among the other things for which they are advocating is access to pediatric hospitals, which Gessner said is particularly concerning in many rural areas of the country. They will also be advocating for what they describe as the 'growing youth mental health crisis.' But for Medicaid, the Northeast Ohio families that are going hope they can show firsthand how important the program has been for them. 'We have good insurance and it's still just not enough. With the health care costs and the way the policies run, [Mia] can't get insurance anywhere else,' said Wilson. 'Mia's never gone without something that she needed, but I also realize that's not the case for everybody. 'Thank God we are in a position where we are surrounded by a community that literally has helped us pay for these things when we didn't have coverage — but not everybody is in that position.'
