Nationwide Egg Recall

The eggs, linked to over 200 cases of salmonella poisoning in several states, produced by Wright County Egg in Galt, Iowa, prompted the initial recall of 380 million eggs (currently half a million). Not surprisingly, Austin "Jack" DeCoster, owner of Quality Egg of New England (QENE), who was the subject of a 2009 Mercy For Animals (MFA) undercover cruelty investigation, is now connected to the nationwide egg recall since Wright County Egg is one of DeCoster's many agribusiness operations.

Battery-cage hens are one of the most abused of God's farmed animals. They live under intense confinement, suffer mutilations without anesthesia, and do not get to exercise any of their God-given instincts while laying eggs until they are consider spent and then sent to slaughter. Supporting the egg industry has no part in being good stewards of God's Creation. We are called to show mercy and love onto all Creation and that includes God's animals.
