SEYMOUR, Ind. — Rose Acre Farms of Seymour, Ind., has recalled 206,749,248 eggs because they have the potential to be contaminated with Salmonella Braenderup.
The recall followed after at least 22 illnesses on the East Coast were traced back to its egg production farm in Hyde County, N.C., which produces 2.3 million eggs a day from 3 million laying hens.
The U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA) is involved in an investigation that has included an inspection of the facility and interviews of the victims.
