Costco Egg Recall 2024 : A recent egg recall has been issued by Costco Wholesale Corporation due to potential Salmonella contamination. This recall affects specific egg products sold at select Costco locations.

Why the Recall?

The recall was prompted by a supplier’s notification to Costco of a potential Salmonella outbreak linked to their eggs. Salmonella is a type of bacteria that can cause serious foodborne illness, particularly in vulnerable populations such as young children, the elderly, and immunocompromised individuals.

2. Return the Eggs: Return the recalled eggs to your local Costco store for a full refund.

How to Stay Safe:
