"Hearst Magazines and Yahoo may earn commission or revenue on some items through these links." Following recalls of cucumbers and tomatoes, eggs have now been added to the list due to concerns of potential Salmonella infection. Similar to the other contamination recalls, this revocation encompasses a large amount of eggs, spanning many states and distributors. Below, we've broken down everything you need to know about the August Egg Company recall. On June 6, 2025, of 1,700,000 dozen brown eggs in collaboration with the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). This wide-ranging recall encompasses 29 different egg products from at least nine different distributors, including Walmart, Save Mart, FoodMaxx, Lucky, Smart & Final, Safeway, Raleys, Food 4 Less and Ralphs. While each recalled product has a different Universal Product Code (UPC), the carton will also contain one of two plant codes: P-6562 or CA-5330 — which can be used to help identify a recalled batch. Here's the full list of recalled eggs: Clover Organic Large Brown, 12 Eggs UPC: 070852010427 First Street Cage Free Large Brown Loose, 1 Case (150 Eggs) UPC: 041512039638 Nulaid Medium Brown Cage Free, 12 Eggs UPC: 071230021042 Nulaid Jumbo Brown Cage Free, 12 Eggs UPC: 071230021011 O Organics Cage Free Large Brown, 6 Eggs UPC: 079893401522 O Organics Large Brown, 12 Eggs UPC: 079893401508 O Organics Large Brown, 18 Eggs UPC: 079893401546 Marketside Organic Large Cage Free Brown, 12 Eggs UPC: 681131122771 Marketside Organic Large Cage Free Brown, 18 Eggs UPC: 681131122801 Marketside Large Cage Free Brown, 12 Eggs UPC: 681131122764 Marketside Large Cage Free Brown, 18 Eggs UPC: 681131122795 Raley's Large Cage Free Brown, 12 Eggs UPC: 046567033310 Raley's Large Cage Free Brown, 18 Eggs UPC: 046567040325 Raley's Organic Large Cage Free Brown, 12 Eggs UPC: 046567028798 Raley's Organic Large Cage Free Brown, 18 Eggs UPC: 046567040295 Simple Truth Medium Brown Cage Free, 18 Eggs UPC: 011110099327 Simple Truth Large Brown Cage Free, 18 Eggs UPC: 011110873743 Sun Harvest Organic Cage Free Large Brown, 12 Eggs UPC: 041512131950 Sun Harvest Organic Cage Free Large Brown, 18 Eggs UPC: 041512145162 Sunnyside Large Brown Cage Free, 12 Eggs UPC: 717544211747 Sunnyside Large Brown Cage Free, 18 Eggs UPC: 717544211754 Sunnyside Organic Cage Free Large Brown, 12 Eggs UPC: 717544201441 Sunnyside Organic Cage Free Large Brown, 18 Eggs UPC: 717544211761 Loose Small Brown Cage Free, 1 Box = 6 Flats (1 Flat = 30 Eggs) Loose Medium Brown Cage Free, 1 Box = 6 Flats (1 Flat = 30 Eggs) Loose Medium Brown Organic, 1 Box = 6 Flats (1 Flat = 30 Eggs) Loose Large Brown Organic, 1 Box = 6 Flats (1 Flat = 30 Eggs) Loose Jumbo Brown Cage Free, 1 Box = 5 Flats (1 Flat = 20 Eggs) Loose Jumbo Brown Organic, 1 Box = 5 Flats (1 Flat = 20 Eggs) The contaminated eggs were distributed in nine states, many of which are located in the American Southwest. Arizona California Illinois Indiana Nebraska New Mexico Nevada Washington Wyoming The recall stems from a potential Salmonella contamination at August Egg Company's California plant. 'It is important to know that when our processing plant identified this concern, we immediately began diverting all eggs from the plant to an egg-breaking facility, which pasteurizes the eggs and kills any pathogens," said the August Egg Company in a statement. Salmonella is a bacterial disease that affects the intestinal tract, often causing diarrhea, fever, stomach cramps, nausea, vomiting, and chills. In severe cases, Salmonella can also lead to death. The infection is most commonly spread through contaminated food or water. In the case of eggs, infected chickens may pass on Salmonella before the shell of their egg is formed, meaning the shell is not able to protect against the disease. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), there has been 79 cases of illnesses, 21 of which resulted in hospitalization. To confirm whether or not you have one of the recalled products, refer to our list above that names the 29 egg items being revoked. If you have one of the items on the list, check the plant number and UPC, located on the side of the carton. The recalled eggs will have a plant number of P-6562 or CA-5330. UPC codes can be referenced using the above list. You'll also want to pay attention to the sell-by date. Recalled eggs distributed at Walmart will have a sell-by date between March 4, 2025, and June 19, 2025. Eggs from the eight other named distributors will have a sell-by date between March 4, 2025, and June 4, 2025. After confirming the noted information, August Egg Company is advising customers to return the eggs to their place of purchase for a full refund.

4 Canned Food And Drink Recalls That Plagued Costco
Costco's biggest food recalls have involved everything from frozen produce to shelled nuts. While some of the big-box retailer's recalls were completely voluntary and enacted out of precaution, others occurred as a result of more serious issues. As a large wholesale retailer with an abundance of food and drink products, Costco is bound to recall items on occasion. In order to keep consumer trust high, it's important to keep recalls transparent and act quickly. Fortunately, Costco has a history of acting diligently. This vigilant conduct is crucial when handling canned goods. Despite generally being an extremely safe, long-lasting food, tinned goods may harbor harmful bacteria like Clostridium botulinum, which can cause botulism, a rare but potentially fatal illness. Bloated, dented, or leaky cans are clear signs of a can that may contain dangerous bacteria. Though it's wise to stay independently informed of potential mishaps, Costco monitors recall notices from its suppliers and the FDA. Once a recall is confirmed, Costco contacts members directly, typically via text messages. From beans to coffee, here are Costco's most notable canned food and drink recalls. Read more: 15 Grocery Store Canned Tuna Brands Ranked Worst To Best Though Costco's canned tuna is a great lunchtime staple, meal time was cut short in February 2025 when Tri-Union Seafoods initiated a voluntary recall of various canned tuna products under its Genova brand. The issue concerned the company's "easy open" canned goods, which allow consumers to pull cans open without a traditional can opener. The defect first came to light when one of Genova's suppliers noted a manufacturing error that compromised the can's integrity, thus increasing the risk of leaks, spoilage, or more seriously, Clostridium botulinum. The recall included 5- and 7-ounce cans, with "Best if Used By" dates ranging from December 2027 to January 2028. The 7-ounce cans, sold in packs of six, specifically affected Costco stock. These cans bore the universal product code 4800063267 and expiry dates of January 21, 23, and 27 of 2028. Customers were advised to dispose of the product or return the cans to the point of purchase for a full refund. The recall was geographically limited but affected Costco warehouses in Florida, Georgia, Tennessee, North Carolina, and Puerto Rico. Genova reported on its website that the recall was done "out of an abundance of caution," and though no illnesses were reported post-recall, the incident did make our list of the the biggest tuna recalls in U.S. history. In April 2021, Faribault Foods Inc. initiated a voluntary recall of its 15-ounce cans of O Organics organic black beans, O Organics organic chili beans, and S&W organic black beans, the latter of which was available in 8-packs at Costco warehouses nationwide. The company believed the cans' metal seals might have been jeopardized, running the risk of Clostridium botulinum contamination. The affected cans were distributed between February and April 2021. The bean manufacturer also shared the cans' lot numbers, as well as their expiration dates, which ranged from January 31 to February 4, 2023. They advised consumers to return the cans to the point of purchase in order to receive a refund or replacement and to avoid potential illness. Less than a month later, Faribault Foods Inc. significantly expanded its recall of its S&W organic black beans cans, citing distribution dates ranging from August 2020 to April 2021, with "best by" dates extending as far back as July 2022. The recalled beans were distributed to Costco warehouses across 11 states — Arizona, Arkansas, California, Colorado, Georgia, Hawaii, Idaho, Oregon, Texas, Utah, and Washington — making it one of the biggest canned vegetable recalls in history. Users on Reddit shared that Costco notified them about the incident, though the recall left some shoppers feeling wary. One user commented, "All kinds of recalls coming from Costco lately. What ... is going on?" Another user countered, "Lots of recalls everywhere all the time. Costco just notifies members of the issues." In March 2023, Costco supplier Berner Foods Inc., otherwise known as Berner Food & Beverage, initiated a significant recall of its Kirkland Signature Colombian Cold Brew Coffee due to the potential presence of metal fragments. The sizable recall affected approximately 231,071 cases, adding up to a whopping 2.77 million cans and resulting in one of the biggest coffee recalls in history. These cans were distributed across 13 states: Arizona, California, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Maryland, Michigan, Minnesota, New Jersey, Texas, Utah, and Washington. The affected cases had "best by" dates ranging from October 19 to 27, 2023. The FDA categorized the recall as Class II, indicating potential health risks to consumers. Costco recommended shoppers return the canned coffee to their local warehouse for a full refund. The cold brew cans were sold under the Kirkland Signature label exclusively at Costco, making the recall especially impactful to the warehouse chain. Though Costco promptly removed the cans from shelves, as of May 2025, the cans are still available from the warehouse chain. Users on Reddit wondered about the size of the metal pieces and whether or not it was possible to ingest a small amount of metal without noticing. In a letter to affected consumers, Berner Food & Beverage assured Costco shoppers that the likelihood of receiving an impacted can was extremely low. The statement went on to explain, "Due to the bolt size, you would have heard the bolt inside the can. The likelihood of the bolt falling out of the opening of the can while drinking is slim (requires shaking to get the bolt out) and you would have felt it in your mouth." In May 2020, Costco issued a recall for Thrive Life baking powder and Nutristore baking powder due to instability within the cans. In separate letters to customers, Nutristore and Thrive Life shared, "It has come to our attention that over time a reaction may take place in our baking powder product which may cause cans to expand or bulge and increase the risk of sudden release of the powder when the can is opened and could pose the risk of injury." Both letters went on to describe a few instances in which added pressure caused a can's lid to suddenly release, triggering the voluntary recall. The recall affected 96-ounce containers of the baking powder cans, which were discontinued in August 2015. Though the letters emphasized that there was no consumption risk with the product, the companies strongly recommended throwing the cans away, preferably in an outdoor trash can with a lid in order to proceed with utmost caution. The recall only affected unopened containers, as open cans were no longer pressurized. Though most cans had already passed their five-year expiration date, Costco promised $10 gift cards regardless of expiry period, as long as shoppers properly disposed of their unopened cans.
