What should you do if you have the recalled eggs?
According to the FDA’s outbreak report on the 2025 egg recall:
- Consumers should stop consuming the product and should return the identified egg cartons to their place of purchase for a full refund.
- Consumers, restaurants, and retailers who purchased or received the recalled eggs, including wholesale eggs, should carefully clean and sanitize any surfaces or containers that they touched.

Follow FDA’s safe handling and cleaning advice and use extra care in cleaning and sanitizing any surfaces and containers that may have come in contact with this product to reduce the risk of cross-contamination.
