Recalled Eggs Found In West Virginia
WEST VIRGINIA....
Wright Egg Farms and Hillandale Farms recalled 500 million eggs from two Iowa farms earlier this month after at least 2,000 people became sick from salmonella. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration told state officials Monday they didn’t believe any of the recalled eggs had reached West Virginia. However, state inspectors have found recalled Hillandale eggs in warehouses and stores in Scott Depot, Milton, Barboursville and Huntington. Consumers can identify recalled eggs by looking at plant numbers and Julian dates on the sides of the carton. Those numbers let people know when and where the eggs were produced. Both numbers are located underneath the expiration date. Consumers should look for plant number P1860, Julian dates 099-230; plant number P1663, Julian dates 137-230; plant numbers P1026, P1413 and P1946, Julian dates 136-225. Officials want consumers and stores to report recalled eggs to the Agriculture Department at 304-558-2208.
