The recall specifically targets Kirkland Signature Organic Pasture Raised 24-Count Eggs sold at 25 Costco locations across five states. Affected products can be identified by:

  • Julian code: 327
  • “Use by” date: January 5, 2025
  • Location: Stores in North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, Georgia, and Alabama

While no illnesses have been reported, the FDA advises consumers not to consume these eggs. Those who purchased the affected products have two options:
