Nearly 19 million eggs sold at several supermarkets have been recalled over possible Salmonella contamination. The recall involves more than 1.5 million dozen white-shell eggs and brown cage-free eggs from Midwest Poultry Services, with the affected eggs produced at farms in Texas and distributed to retail and foodservice customers in several states.
