Over 6 million eggs recalled due to potential salmonella contamination.
Recalled eggs are from Black Sheep Egg Company and Kenz Henz.
Eggs were distributed to retailers and wholesalers in Arkansas, Missouri, Texas, California, and Indiana, and may have been repackaged.
Symptoms of salmonella poisoning include diarrhea, fever, and stomach cramps.
Why this matters:: Salmonella can cause severe illness, especially in vulnerable populations like children and the elderly. Checking your eggs and following recall instructions can prevent unnecessary health risks.
The recall was initiated after FDA testing found salmonella strains in samples from Black Sheep Egg Company's processing center. Kenz Henz also issued a recall for its 12-count egg cartons. Because Black Sheep distributes eggs to both wholesalers and retailers, some of the eggs may have been rebranded with different packaging by other companies. The FDA believes the eggs could have been distributed in more states and plans to update the recall list if more potentially contaminated products are identified.
