Midwest Poultry Services has recalled 1,589,577 dozen eggs — about 19.1 million individual eggs — produced at two Texas farms after the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) published a recall notice on July 22, 2026. The eggs were distributed between June 6 and July 3, 2026, across six states.
What Was Recalled
The recall covers white-shell and brown-shell cage-free eggs bearing producer code P-1950 or 0840962 with a Julian packing date between 157 and 184. Recalled cartons will show a best-by date between July 20, 2026 and August 17, 2026.
Where The Eggs Were Sold
The eggs were sold at Kroger stores in Texas and Louisiana, at Brookshire Grocery stores, and at various smaller retailers in Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas, Louisiana, New Mexico and Mississippi. No other products have been identified in this recall.
Company Actions
Midwest Poultry Services has suspended egg production at the two Texas farms involved while the recall is active. As of July 22, the company reports that no illnesses have been linked to these eggs.
Health Risk And Safety Tips
Salmonella bacteria can cause salmonellosis, an infection that commonly produces diarrhea, stomach cramps, headache, nausea and vomiting. Young children, older adults, pregnant people and those with weakened immune systems are at higher risk of severe illness. According to FoodSafety.gov, salmonella can be present on the shell and inside the yolk of contaminated eggs, so washing eggs alone may not prevent infection.
What To Do If You Have Recalled Eggs
- Do not eat the eggs.
- Return recalled cartons to the place of purchase for a refund.
