Eggs from Iowa

From the Washington Post:

A salmonella outbreak that sickened hundreds and led to the recall of hundreds of millions of eggs from one Iowa firm will likely grow, federal health officials said Thursday.

Much of the investigation so far has been centered on restaurants in California, Colorado, Minnesota and North Carolina.

The eggs were distributed around the country and packaged under the names Lucerne, Albertson, Mountain Dairy, Ralph's, Boomsma's, Sunshine, Hillandale, Trafficanda, Farm Fresh, Shoreland, Lund, Dutch Farms and Kemp.


Buy local, folks. Nothing good comes from mass-produced food from several states away. In fact, maybe it's time to give the 100-mile diet another look.

Speaking of which, this Saturday is Home Sweet Farm.
