Gravel Ridge Farms is recalling its cage-free large eggs due to a potential contamination of Salmonella. The recall was initiated because reported illnesses were confirmed at unnamed foodservice locations using Gravel Ridge Farm Eggs, and the company is voluntarily recalling out of an abundance of caution.

On September 6, the company was notified by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) that the product they supplied may be contaminated with Salmonella. The product affected includes single dozen and 2.5 dozen flats with the UPC 7-06970-38444-6, distributed between June 25 and September 6. These products were packaged in a cardboard container and sold primarily in restaurants and retail stores in Alabama, Georgia, and Tennessee.

Gravel Ridge Farms has ceased the production and distribution of the product as it works with the FDA to continue the investigation as to what caused the problem.
