Those Liquid Eggs In Your Fridge May Have Just Been Recalled for Bleach
Liquid eggs are often seen as the ideal alternative to traditional egg cartons. Not only do they typically last longer, they can also provide a quick and easy breakfast for anyone short on time in the morning.
Unfortunately, that carton of liquid eggs you recently bought could be facing a mass recall from the federal government, owing to potential bleach contamination from the eggs' production facility.
In late March, the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Food Safety and Inspection Service ordered a recall of 212,268 pounds of liquid eggs manufactured in Cargill Kitchen Solutions. The eggs in question were produced on March 12 and March 13 of this year, and were shipped out to suppliers in Texas, Ohio, Arizona, California, Colorado, Florida, Illinois and Iowa. The FSIS specifically believe the eggs may contain traces of a cleaning solution that feature sodium hypochlorite as a key ingredient.
Among the brands affected by the recall are Bob Evans Better'n Eggs Made With Real Egg Whites and four varieties of Egg Beaters (Original Liquid Egg Substitute, Cage-Free Original Liquid Egg Substitute, Cage-Free Original Frozen Egg Substitute, and No Enjauladas Original Sustituto De Huevo Congelado). To see whether your liquid eggs are subject to recall, double-check your cartons to see if "G1804" is printed on the label.
While these egg brands might contain traces of bleach, the FSIS has stated that there are no serious health risks associated with the product.
"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," the agency said.
Anyone who has purchased recalled liquid eggs is encouraged to contact Cargill Kitchen Solutions at 1-844-419-1574 or to email the company at media@
