Salmonella egg recall brands Includes egg recall numbers from two Iowa farms

24 August, 2010

Salmonella egg recall brands Includes egg recall numbers from two Iowa farms. In the meantime people are fearful using even chickens

US Food and Drug Administration has started a probe in the massive egg recall that seems to have topped five hundred million unit. Some estimates suggest that with new recalls planned, it may top U.S. probes egg recall amid calls for tighter rules

So far mainly two companies have been involved in the recall, but with salmonella fear looming large, there are reports that some more recalls can be ordered in the days to come.

People are worried whether the recall that has begun with eggs will affect chicken or not.

Margaret Hamburg, USFDA commissioner wjile talking to a television channel said, “We don't know exactly how the contamination got into the chicken population, into the egg population, and we're not yet fully sure the extent of the recall that will be necessary to protect consumers”.

A reader says, “My family has been eating raw milk and fresh farm eggs for a dozen years and no ill side effects. A couple people get sick and they put the fear in everyone, just like the swine flu. Another month and the chicken scare will be over and the government will be pushing the flu vaccine. Its all about the money and the whore lobbyists. Could it be all the antibiotics and hormones they feed these commercial chickens is the cause of the problem?”

While another reader has this to say, “I’ll gladly pay $5.00 a dozen just to make sure I won’t get sick from eating the eggs I buy at the store. Of course, why should the eggs I buy here in NJ have to be produced in Iowa anyway? Aren’t there any chickens in NJ? People in California got sick from these Iowa corporate eggs! Surely there are people raising chickens that lay eggs in California. That is what is really wrong with our country: most of our food production is not local anymore; it’s just a small number of huge corporations growing most of the food we now must consume.”
