The Food & Drug Administration (FDA) notified Cal-Maine Foods, Inc. about their eggs testing positive in a routine study sample for Salmonella Enteritidis (SE). Ohio Fresh Eggs, LLC is one of Cal-Maine Foods’ suppliers. The routine sample test (environmental study) was done on the eggs from this supplier. Ohio Fresh Eggs supplied around 24,000 dozen eggs (unprocessed) to Cal-Maine, who then processed and repacked them at their facility in Arkansas in October 2010. The notification regarding SE presence went to the company only in the second week of November.
