Egg recall

Handsome Brook Farms is voluntarily recalling 10,800 retail units of the Organic Pasture Raised 24-Count Eggs sold under the Kirkland Signature brand name because these eggs can potentially be contaminated with Salmonella.

Beginning Friday, Nov. 22, the eggs were distributed to 25 Costco stores in Alabama, Georgia, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Tennessee.

The Organic Pasture Raised 24-Count Eggs with UPC 9661910680 are packaged in plastic egg cartons labeled with Kirkland Signature on the top. 

The recall only applies to units with the Julian code 327 and a Use By Date of Jan 5, 2025, which can be found on the side of the plastic egg carton. This recall impacts no other products.

The recall was initiated after the company determined that eggs not intended for retail distribution were packaged and distributed in retail packaging. 

To prevent recurrence, additional supply chain controls and retraining are being implemented.
