By Hoosier Enquirer CEO

Consumers are urged to check their refrigerators after a major egg recall involving more than 19 million eggs because of possible Salmonella Enteritidis contamination. The voluntary recall was announced by Midwest Poultry Services, L.P., and posted by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.

Recall Details

• Company: Midwest Poultry Services, L.P. 800 Wabash Rd, North Manchester, IN 46962

  750 valued employees in four locations in northern Indiana, Illinois, Texas, and Georgia who oversee 14 million laying hens

• Quantity: 1,589,577 dozen cartons (about 19 million eggs)

• Reason: Potential Salmonella Enteritidis contamination

• Dates: Produced between June 6 and July 3, 2026; Best-by/Sell-by dates from July 20 to August 17, 2026

• Carton Codes: Look for plant code P-1950 or 084-096-2 with Julian dates 157–184

  
  

The recall covers approximately 1.59 million dozen eggs—more than 19 million individual eggs—including white shell eggs and brown cage-free eggs produced at Texas facilities and distributed to retailers and food-service customers in Texas, Oklahoma, Louisiana, Arkansas, New Mexico, and Mississippi. Since Indiana is not included, HE wonders if the heat in transit could have been issue. There is no indication that these recalled eggs were widely distributed to Indiana retailers reported. As of the latest federal updates, Indiana has not been identified as one of the states with reported illnesses in this outbreak.

The affected eggs were sold under multiple brand names, including certain Kroger and Simple Truth products. Consumers should check cartons for the plant codes P-1950 or 0840962 and Julian dates 157 through 184. Eggs matching those codes should not be eaten. Instead, consumers should discard them or return them to the place of purchase for a full refund.

Salmonella infection can cause fever, diarrhea, stomach cramps, nausea and vomiting. Young children, older adults, pregnant women and people with weakened immune systems face the greatest risk of severe illness. Anyone experiencing symptoms after consuming recalled eggs should contact a healthcare provider.

At the time of the recall announcement, no illnesses had been confirmed in connection with these eggs, but the recall was initiated as a precaution after potential contamination was identified.

Hoosier Enquirer Public Service Reminder: Even if you do not live in one of the listed distribution states, travelers may have purchased the eggs while away from home or received them through family members. It takes only a minute to check your egg carton—and doing so could help protect your family.
