Multiple brands of products that include hard-boiled eggs are under nationwide recall following an alert last week by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention about a deadly outbreak of listeria. At least seven people in five states have gotten sick, including one who died in Texas.

The eggs from Almark Foods of Gainesville, Ga., were sent to foodservice operators nationwide. Almark says it has temporarily suspended all production at its Gainesville plant.

Trader Joe’s announced Monday it is recalling its brand name Egg Salad in 6-ounce cups and its brand name Old Fashioned Potato Salada in 20-ounc trays. They have use-by dates up to and including Dec. 27, 2019. More information on the Trader Joe’s recalls, including photos of the products, can be found at this link.

Almark Foods has announced a recall of 76 items distributed nationwide, which you can see the full list of at this link. They were sold under multiple brand names including 7 Select, Almark Foods, Best Choice, CMI, Dairy Fresh, Deb-El, Egglands Best, Everyday Essentials, Farmers Hen House, Food Club, Fresh Thyme, Giant Eagle, Great Day, Great Value, Inspired Organics, Kirkland Signature, Kroger, LIDL, Lucerne, Members Mark, Naturally Better, Nellie’s, O Organics, Peckish, Pete & Gerry’s, Rainbow Farms, Rembrandt Foods, ShopRite, Simple Truth Organics, Sunshine, Vital Farms, and Wild Harvest.

1. Thanks for posting

Be sure you take them back and get your money back. Too many folks I believe just toss the stuff and take the hit themselves and that is just silly.

2. Thanks for the heads up!

Will be avoiding eggs at restaurant visits in near future also.


Happy Holidays!

16. Eggs cooked fresh are not listed in the recall. just prepared ready to eat

hardboiled eggs.

I agree with several other posters on the subject of buying prepared hardboiled eggs.

I'll do my own, thank you.

3. How many food inspectors

has our current gov. cut in the last few years.

4. Doug Collins' hometown. It's his fault.

5. He probably laid these eggs himself.

He does look like a big chicken.

6. I had no idea you could buy eggs already hard boiled.

Another thing that is just not very hard to do yourself. Same with making egg salad.

10. Yes you

Can and don’t understand why you don’t just boil your own

11. I've enjoyed the hard-boiled eggs I've bought at WalMart. I like to think I'm conserving energy

but I'm really just lazy. That may be changing now...

12. It would be a lot safer to do so.

13. I bought two bags of Eggland's Best boiled eggs

I got them to put in my Sicilian sausage and rice dish, which has sliced eggs embedded in the layers of rice mixed with tomato sauce and hot sausage. The first batch I made, they tasted kind of gamey so I stopped adding the sliced eggs. The dish is baked at 375 for 40 minutes. I assumed they were overcooked from the baking but maybe they weren't any good to begin with. The expire date on the bags is January 1, 2020.

15. People actually buy hard-boiled eggs? I thought that was something even the most

kitchen-challenged adult could cook.

[TexasBushwhacker]

17. Getting that perfect hard boiled egg can be a challenge

Cooked just enough that the yolk is hard and light yellow all the way through, without overcooking, isn't always as easy as it seems.

18. Easy & fool proof hard boiled eggs:

Get a saucepan or pot that is deeper then it is wide.
Fill with fresh, cold water.
Carefully put fresh eggs into the pot.
Turn on stove top eye to HIGH.
Set timer for 15 minutes.
When timer goes off, remove eggs from stove, put pot in sink, and run cool water into pot.
Crack and peel eggs under warm running water.
Voila!

I have a small stainless steel camping cup/pot with folding handles that is the perfect size for making one boiled egg. It’s also great for melting butter.
It looks like this:
