Cargill Kitchen Solutions is recalling approximately 212,268 pounds of liquid egg products after concerns emerged that they may be contaminated with a cleaning solution containing sodium hypochlorite, according to an announcement from the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS).
The recall affects liquid egg products produced on March 12 and 13, 2025. The specific items include 32-ounce (2-pound) cartons of various “egg beaters” and “Bob Evans” branded liquid egg substitutes, with “use by” dates ranging from August 9, 2025, to March 7, 2026. Recalled products include:
These products can be identified by the establishment number “G1804” ink-jetted on the cartons. They were distributed to Ohio and Texas for retail, as well as to foodservice locations in Arizona, California, Colorado, Florida, Illinois, and Iowa, with potential distribution extending nationwide.
The issue came to light following a tip received by FSIS about possible contamination. After an investigation and analysis of the cleaning solution involved, FSIS scientists determined that the risk to public health is negligible, classifying this as a Class III recall—indicating that consumption is unlikely to cause adverse health effects. To date, no confirmed reports of illness or adverse reactions have been linked to these products.
Despite the low risk, FSIS is urging consumers and foodservice providers to check their refrigerators and freezers for the recalled items. Those who have purchased the affected products are advised not to consume them, while foodservice establishments are instructed not to serve them. The products should either be discarded or returned to the place of purchase. Individuals worried about potential health concerns are encouraged to consult a healthcare provider.
