An increasingly massive egg recall by Write County Egg, following the sickening hundreds of people since May, now affects 13 retail brands 19 retail brands 20 retail brands that the egg factory packages. The culprit: Salmonella on egg shells. On up to 380 million egg shells, to be exact.
Bacterial contamination on modern industrial-scale chicken farms （factories, really） is a growing problem. Cramped conditions are breeding grounds for disease. Widespread use of antibiotics is creating drug-resistant strains of bacteria. Salmonella in eggs only emerged as a problem in the 1980s, several centuries after humans started raising chickens for food. According to the New York Times:
The company behind the recall, Wright County Egg, of Galt, Iowa, is owned by Jack DeCoster, who has had run-ins with regulators over poor or unsafe working conditions, environmental violations, the harassment of workers and the hiring of illegal immigrants.
One antidote to the problem of industrialized agriculture is to choose locally sourced eggs from farms that allow their chickens to run free. Though be aware that the label free range doesn\'t mean what you might think.
Egg Recall Numbers：
The recalled Eggs are packed in 6- 12- or 18-egg cartons with Julian dates ranging from 136 to 225 and plant numbers 1026, 1413 and 1946. Dates and codes can be found stamped on the end of the egg carton （see photo at right）. The plant number begins with the letter P and then the number. The Julian date follows the plant number, for example: P-1946 223.
Consumers should not eat the eggs, and should return recalled eggs to the store where they were purchased for a full refund.
Salmonella Poisoning Symptoms（沙門氏菌中毒的症狀）：
Within 6-to-72 hours of eating an egg（在吃了一個雞蛋的6到72小時內）,
you may experience（你可能經曆這些：）
lower abdominal cramps（下腹部痛）；
diarrhea （sometimes bloody）{腹瀉（有時帶血）}；
vomiting（嘔吐）；
fever（發燒）；
chills（感覺寒冷）；
malaise（莫名的不適, 渾身虛弱）；
nausea （反胃,惡心,作嘔）；
headache（頭痛）.
Symptoms may persist for as long as a week.（症狀可能持續一周） While most people recover without treatment, some patients require hospitalization（大多數人不必治療就可恢複），而有些病人需要住院治療）.
Among the 21,244 cases of foodborne illness reported outbreaks in the United States in 2007 （the last year for which data is available from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention）, Salmonella was the No. 2 cause of illness, causing 27% of foodborne illness outbreaks, including 55% of multi-state outbreaks, and 81 illnesses attributed to Salmonella in eggs; five deaths resulted from Salmonella-contaminated food. The two biggest foodborne illness outbreaks that year were caused by Salmonella, in hummus and frozen pot pies.
