It was Spinach, Tomatoes and etc. but now it is eggs! Mass produced causes many problems among which is "cleanliness" ! But with the population growth this is the only way to feed the nation unless each has their own farm! We grew our own food on the farm but that was while I was growing up! Used to have my own small vegetable garden in my yard but don't even have that any more! Sad world we live in because of "SIN" ! May God Bless! Amen!

"...Unless each one has their own farm..." Now there's an idea I really like!

Since Obozo took office, it seems almost every week there has been some sort or another crises.
Looks to me though like the 1000+ sick had better learn to prepare and cook their food better. The recall is sure a waste of food.

A waste of food, yes....but better to waste it than to cause illness in lots of people! Samonella is a very bad bacteria which sometimes never goes a way once someone has fallen ill and lived through it! Many have to take meds most of their lives for the illness will occur over and over again, when it is a severe case of Salmonella poisoning....it is very fatal to the young and eating out causes most of the cases! May God Bless you and yours! Amen! Ma Betty

The problem I have with these recalls is my father and his before him lived on farms/ranches and most anything they consumed was from them. The interesting thing is, you never heard of this stuff, food recalls, until about the last 30 or so years.
Dad was born in south Texas and was raised from a farm garden fertilized with manure and preserves (canned) from it, the figs from the fig trees, their own eggs, and livestock. They butchered and or cured most of their own meats and saved and cleaned their own hog casings (pigs intestines) for making sausage, stuffing the sausage into them, and smoking the links. They even cured their own hams and bacon slabs. Now eggs do get a little chicken manure on them and when you slaughter and butcher, things are not exactly spick and span. Even when you milk a cow, cheese cloth saved many a bucket of milk straining out straw, dirt, bugs, and manure. Dad never recalled a time anyone in the family ever got sick. Not that I was raised so long as he was on those self reliant foods, I have though helped slaughter, collect eggs, clean casings, and make sausage the way his father did and no one has become sick. The old cistern that collected rain was the only way they got water and if you ever saw the inside of one of those in the south (thick algae, dirt, bird droppings, dead bugs, floaties, etc.), you would never touch another drop of water from one and it never killed any of us who were not raised on it or those who used them daily.
From what I have read about these eggs, all they had to do is wash them when handling and cook them well, no sopping up yoke with toast and I'm one of those who does and have yet to ever get sick. Considering the small number effected to the rest of the population of the U.S., I think this is more a lack of knowing how to prepare food and people have taken so many anti-biotics for everything under the sun, they no longer have an immune system.
I see now Wal-Mart is in a meat recall and you have seen how many of those we have had and beef for me is becoming so costly, I can not afford to eat it regularly as I used to. In fact, you can't even buy a beef brisket cheap anymore for BBQ. Used to be the poor mans cut of meat till everyone found out how well it eats real pit BBQ'ed. I suspect eggs now will increase in price as well. Again, most of these recalled meats only needed to be washed when handling before cooking and to cook them well. You will also find that many canned items with meat in them are high in salt. In the old days, Salt Pork and Bacon were literally packed in salt to preserve them. Heck, if some of these people were to find out how many bug parts are allowed in their cereal when it is made, they would starve to death before eating another bowl full. And if they ever knew how a Honey Bee makes Honey and saw all the Bee parts that end up in Honey during extraction from the foundation before it is filtered, well, I can see their faces now. And Honey not pasteurized is a natural anti-biotic.

Hi Robert! All you have posted is true, but since we are a country of many people used to buying our foods and eating out, it is very easy to get Salmonella poisoning, because there are workers who have to hurry their preparing and cooking, and some don't wash their hands after bathroom privileges, so foods are contaminated! I very seldom eat out and being raised on a farm and then raising a family, myself, I know how to cook my foods and to keep utensils and so forth cleaned like they should be before use!
Like I said before, we each need to live on a farm and raise our own crops and prepare our own foods, whatever they may be, but with a huge population and the farms swallowed up by large Corporations and shipping in large amounts....this is the way it is now-a-days! The only thing I didn't help with was sausage making, as my mom had a huge meat grinder and would do it herself, we never had any casings for sausage! Our bacon, ham and etc. was salted down with brown sugar and preserved so we could have meat to eat, we only had milk, butter and cream when the cows calved and before they went dry before a new calf came! In the Spring when they ate garlic and wild onions, they were inedible...tasting really bad! We only had eggs when the chickens were laying and not molting their feathers! So, we did without a lot of things people say are necessary for food on the table, today! Mom and dad had very little money, so we didn't buy a lot of foods from the grocery stores in town! We never had a lot of candy to eat and only on a rare occasion we drank soda pop!
'Tis said those were the good old days, although not much money, there was more love, friendliness, neighborliness and helping one another on the farms when needed! Dad spread manure on our gardens and fields for the cattle and two horses to have good, green grass to eat and we seldom ever got sick from the food from the gardens or by mom canning (preserving) the food for eating when fresh food wasn't so plentiful! We had colds and the regular childhood diseases...like measles, mumps and whooping cough! Polio was going around for a while and some of the children died or were crippled from that, so mom used wisdom and had us stay out of the water in the creeks that summer! She used old time remedies made herself, for make us better and healing us children! I am alive and kicking but not so well most of the time! I have osteo-arthritis, COPD, and get tired easily when I do anything out of the ordinary! And, yet, I praise God and Thank Jesus, for their mercy and grace in saving me, for I am a Child of God! Amen! May God bless you and yours! Amen!

I am thankful for our chickens!!!! We sure don't save any money by raising our own eggs, but the quality and peace of mind is worth all the expense and effort. Don't have to worry about the "egg recall", but our GM vehicles are another thing entirely. I don't think anything is what it used to be.
