Eggs are a staple many countries and the United States is no exception, so when a food recall hits a major egg supplier you can count on it being widespread. A company called Rose Acre Farms, based out of Seymour, Indiana, has issued a recall of over 200,000,000 of its eggs over fear of a salmonella outbreak that has already caused over 20 illnesses, and it affects grocery store shoppers in nine states.

The eggs, which were sourced from a farm in North Carolina, were sold under a number of different store brands, including Food Lion and Great Value. You can find the full recall list below, which includes the UPC identifier and package size.

If you’ve purchased eggs under any of these brand names, be sure to check the UPC code as well as the Julian date, which is printed on the side of the carton. If the Julian date falls between 011 and 102, and matches one of the UPCs below, it is included in the recall and you should avoid eating them.

The FDA has issued a bulletin about the recall, along with information on how to contact the company to obtain a full refund:

Consumers who have purchased shells eggs are urged to immediately discontinue use of the recalled eggs and to return them to the place of purchase for a full refund. Consumers with questions may contact the company at (855) 215-5730 between the hours of 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Eastern Standard time.

Salmonella can cause some very serious symptoms, including fever, diarrhea, nausea and vomiting. Infections are particularly severe in those with compromised immune systems, as well as young children and the elderly. Additional information can be found on the FDA’s official recall page.
