Egg recall update: FDA details filth found at hen houses

U.S. Food and Drug Administration officials today unveiled the final list of the contamination problems they found at the two egg producers at the heart of a 500-million plus egg recall, and the listing painted a pretty scary picture of the nation's food supply.

They found:

  • Holes that allowed birds to and cats to enter

  • Frogs

  • Hens walking through leaking manure

  • Flies and maggots

  • Live mice and burrow holes for rodents
