Salmonella Outbreak Linked to Recalled Eggs Sickens Dozens Across 14 States, Including Arizona

At least 95 reported illnesses since January; federal health officials urge caution with recalled products

PHOENIX — Federal health officials say at least 95 people in 14 states have been sickened in a multistate salmonella outbreak tied to recalled eggs, including one confirmed case in Arizona.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) reported that illnesses occurred between January 7 and July 25, 2025. Of those infected, 18 required hospitalization, though no deaths have been reported. The majority of cases, 73 in total, were documented in California.

Recall details

In response, Country Eggs LLC issued a recall notice on Wednesday, August 27, for large brown cage-free eggsdistributed in California and Nevada from June 16 to July 9. The products were sold at stores under the brand names Nagatoshi Produce, Misuho, and Nijiya Markets, and also packaged for food service as “Sunshine Yolks” and “Omega-3 Golden Yolks.”

Recalled cartons carry sell-by dates from July 1 to September 16 and bear the code CA 7695. Health officials are urging consumers to check their refrigerators and discard any recalled cartons, cleaning surfaces and containers that may have come into contact with the eggs.

Symptoms and precautions

The CDC says salmonella infection often causes diarrhea, fever, and stomach cramps beginning six hours to six daysafter consuming contaminated food. Most patients recover in about a week without treatment, but more serious cases can occur.

Health officials advise seeking medical attention if symptoms include high fever, bloody diarrhea, prolonged illness, severe vomiting, or signs of dehydration.

The outbreak may be more widespread than reported, as many people with salmonella do not seek medical care or testing.
