What steps should be taken if eggs you purchased are part of a salmonella recall?

When eggs are part of a Salmonella recall, it means they might make people sick. Here are steps you should take:

1. Do not eat the eggs. Eating eggs that are recalled can cause illness.
2. Return the eggs to the store. You can usually get your money back if you bring them back.
3. Wash your hands and surfaces. If you touched the eggs, wash your hands well with soap and water. Clean any surfaces the eggs touched to keep your kitchen safe.

It's important to follow these steps to keep you and your family healthy. Recalls happen to protect people from getting sick, and by following these instructions, you help prevent illness. Remember, food safety is very important, especially when it comes to eggs and other foods that can carry germs.
