A large batch of shell eggs sold across Texas, Oklahoma and Louisiana is being pulled from shelves after Midwest Poultry Services, L.P. said the products may be contaminated with Salmonella Enteritidis, according to a company recall notice<\/a> posted by the FDA.<\/p>\n

The recall covers about 1.59 million dozen eggs, including white shell eggs and brown cage-free eggs produced at the company\u2019s Texas farms. The eggs were distributed between June 6 and July 3, 2026, and the cartons have \u201csell by\u201d or \u201cbest by\u201d dates ranging from July 20 through Aug. 17, 2026.<\/p>\n

The company said the eggs went to both retail and foodservice customers, and were sold at Kroger stores in Texas and Louisiana and Brookshire Grocery stores in several states, along with other smaller retailers.<\/p>\n

If you have eggs at home that match the recall, the company\u2019s advice is simple: don\u2019t eat them. <\/p>\n

Instead, return them to the store where you bought them for a full refund. Midwest Poultry Services said it has not been told of any confirmed illnesses tied to these eggs so far.<\/p>\n

Salmonella infections can be especially serious for young children, older adults and people with weakened immune systems. For many healthy people, symptoms can include fever, stomach cramps, nausea, vomiting and diarrhea, which can sometimes be severe.<\/p>\n

How to tell if your carton is included<\/p>\n

The recalled cartons have a printed code on the side. The recall applies to eggs marked P-1950 or 0840962, with a Julian date between 157 and 184, the notice said.<\/p>\n
