Oh no I am so sorry you have had the illness too.. I sure hope you get to feeling better real soon..

I think your State was on the list.. I will recheck.. Oh your right & that I have watched shows about chicken & egg farms & its like unreal the conditions.. Some of it makes you sick before you have even eaten anything..

eggs every morning.

The way these chickens are treated,I'm surprised we all aren't gettting sick.

"I would be s.o.l. if I got any bad ones, because I would never know it. I empty the eggs out of the store carton into an egg tray in my fridge, so brand, dates and codes are lost in the trash!"

Really bad idea for a couple of reasons. Other than no info/dates etc, the fridge door that normally houses those egg trays are actually the hottest part of you fridge. Not good for eggs. Better for less perishable items like condiments etc.

I buy my eggs at the farmers market on Sat. They are more expensive but worth it. I feel like I "know" the chickens. The farmer tells me the craziest colored eggs are from the craziest chickens! LOL! She can tell you what egg came from what chicken. She names them all and takes good care of them.

What I use for the eggs is like a Tupperware container that is for egg storage and sits on any shelf in the fridge. No - I don't like the door storage method either. But I still loose the date and code info by doing this.

They said on the news that just because the eggs aren't in a certain state, doesn't mean the people are safe. Some of the eggs have been used by companies in their products so can reach all the USA. I sure hope it doesn't find it's way into pet food.

Eukaneuba has a recall on their food and the reason they state is salmonella, some of the pet stores have said that the cause was because of some bad eggs so it has me wondering. I don't buy their food so it wouldn't affect me but wondered if anyone else has noticed a recall in their pet stores.
