Does the FDA expect more companies to recall?
This is an ongoing investigation. FDA is working with Wright County Egg and Hillandale Farms of Iowa, Inc. to identify their distributors and wholesalers who distributed the recalled shell eggs further through the country and Mexico. Because these eggs are sold by different companies under different brand names, we may see some smaller scale or “sub recalls.” Consumers should go to http://www.fda.gov/Food/NewsEvents/WhatsNewinFood/ucm223536.htm to view the most recent list. Should FDA uncover information that leads to more contaminated shell eggs, then the Agency will work with the necessary parties to facilitate voluntarily recalls of the products and take the necessary steps to protect the safety of the public’s health. That additional information will be posted on the fda.gov web site as it is confirmed.
