Dec 24, 2024, 05:36 PM

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has elevated the recall of Kirkland Signature Organic Pasture Raised 24-Count Eggs sold at Costco to a 'Class I' status due to concerns over potential salmonella contamination. This classification indicates a serious risk, with a reasonable probability that consuming the affected eggs could lead to severe health consequences or even death. The recall pertains to eggs sold between November 22 and November 27, 2024, and customers are urged to check for cartons with the sell-by date of January 5, 2025, and return them for a refund. The FDA has warned that hundreds of thousands of these eggs may pose a significant health risk, primarily affecting consumers in Southern states, although the recall is nationwide.
