Milo’s Poultry Farms Just Recalled All of Its Eggs Due to a Major Salmonella Outbreak

You’ll want to skip the eggs for breakfast tomorrow. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has shared a recall from Milo’s Poultry Farms that affects eggs sold across the Midwest. The egg recall was announced after the FDA connected Milo’s to an ongoing Salmonella outbreak investigation that has caused 65 illnesses across nine states.

Here’s what you need to know about the egg recall—and how to stay safe.

Why is Milo’s recalling its eggs?

Milo’s Poultry Farms is connected to a major salmonella outbreak in the United States. Of the 65 people who have been infected with the salmonella strain linked to Milo’s eggs, 24 of them have been hospitalized.

Milo’s has temporarily stopped distributing its eggs and plans to sanitize its farms and processing equipment. However, plenty of damage has already been done. Illnesses started as long ago as May 23, 2024.

What eggs have been recalled?

• This recall is for all carton sizes and all egg types labeled with “Milo’s Poultry Farms”
• It also covers all carton sizes of “Tony’s Fresh Market” eggs
• This recall covers all expiration dates

This means all types of Milo’s and Tony’s Fresh Market eggs are affected by the recall: cage-free, organic and non-GMO chicken eggs. It affects all egg sizes too (medium, large, extra-large, jumbo).

How do I know if I bought recalled eggs from Milo’s?

To see if your eggs are part of the recall, check your refrigerator for any eggs with a carton labeled Milo’s Poultry Farms or Tony’s Fresh Market.

What should I do next?

You should not cook or eat any eggs that are part of the recall. If you have Milo’s Poultry Farms eggs, throw them out. If you stored the eggs without the original packaging, the FDA recommends throwing them away. Then, clean and sanitize your refrigerator as well as any other surfaces or containers the eggs may have touched.

If you have symptoms of salmonella poisoning like fever, diarrhea, nausea, vomiting or abdominal pain, contact your doctor as soon as possible.
