Midwest Poultry Services has recalled approximately 1.6 million shell eggs over potential salmonella contamination, according to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.

The recall covers white-shell and cage-free eggs produced at two Texas farms and distributed between June 6 and July 3 to retailers across Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, New Mexico, Oklahoma and Texas.

The report said the affected eggs were sold under several brands, including Kroger, Simple Truth, Brookshire's, Country Morning and Sunups. The products carry sell-by or best-by dates ranging from July 20 through Aug. 17.

According to the FDA, Salmonella Enteritidis can cause serious illness, particularly among young children, older adults and people with weakened immune systems. Midwest Poultry Services said no illnesses linked to the recalled eggs have been reported.

The company said the issue was discovered through routine environmental monitoring and has suspended fresh egg shipments from the affected farms. Consumers are advised not to eat the recalled eggs and should return them for a full refund.
