Salmonella Concerns Prompt Michigan Farm to Recall Shell Eggs

Due to concerns of possible Salmonella enteriditis contamination, a Michigan poultry farm is recalling “shell eggs in eight counties.” The recall was issued shortly after an environmental sample from a “foodborne illness outbreak investigation” detected the presence of salmonella at LaBar Poultry Farm in Manistique. The farm itself is owned by Jeff and Heidi LaBar, and so far they, along with the Michigan agriculture department and the health department have been silent on the matter, media outlets report that LaBar Poultry Farm “has recalled eggs distributed to restaurants, grocery stores and directly to consumers.”








Popular Stuffed Toys Recalled Over Laceration Concerns

When parents buy their children toys, they do so with the mindset that they’re safe to play with. Certainly, they don’t think that their child’s new toy would be hazardous or harmful to play with. Unfortunately, one popular toy has been declared dangerous and is now being recalled. TOMY’s Munching Max Chipmunk toys are being recalled because, according to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, parts inside the toys can “break and puncture the fabric,” posing a laceration hazard. So far only one child has been injured because of the issue.
