The Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS), part of the U.S. Department of Agriculture, announced a delay in starting the sampling of not-ready-to-eat breaded stuffed chicken products for Salmonella. Originally scheduled for May 1, 2025, this will now begin on November 3, 2025. This delay allows time to finalize instructions, ensure inspection readiness, and help the industry prepare. It also gives the new FSIS leadership a chance to review policies regarding this issue.

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has decided to revoke the temporary permit given to M.G. Waldbaum Co., a part of Michael Foods Egg Co., that allowed them to test market "ultrapasteurized liquid whole eggs" and similar products. The agency determined that this permit is no longer necessary since the processing method used by the company is already allowed under the current regulations for liquid eggs, which require pasteurization to eliminate Salmonella. The standard of identity for liquid eggs already covers the processing methods used by the company, thus eliminating the need for a special permit. The revocation is effective as of January 2, 2025.
