2 Farms, 380 Million eggs

Maybe they should be investigating factory farming? How can 2 farms produce over 380 million eggs in humane or sanitary conditions? Obviously, they can't.


The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has
added 40 illnesses to the estimated 1,300 that have
occurred already in the salmonella enteritidis
outbreak that forced the recall of half a billion eggs.

Meanwhile, the more than 20 Food and Drug
Administration staffers on site at the two implicated
farms — Wright County Egg and Hillandale Farms,
both in
Iowa— have completed their initial
investigations, says Jeff Farrar, the agency's
associate commissioner for food protection.
