Do not eat eggs stamped 3UA1012066, food-safety agency warns
People in Wales should check the stamp on their eggs and not eat any bearing 3UA1012066, the Food Standards Agency says. Its alert covers shell eggs from Yasensvit Ltd in Kyiv, Ukraine, in all pack sizes and with all best-before dates. The agency says affected eggs should be disposed of at home. It issued the alert on 10 October and last modified it on 11 October.

Check the egg itself, not just the box
The FSA warns that eggs may have been repacked by UK businesses, so outer packaging can show different business details or packing-centre codes. The stamp on the egg is the key check. Businesses should immediately stop using or selling eggs with that stamp and withdraw or recall them. The alert says affected eggs must not be diverted to further processing.
Which eggs are affected?
The FSA says UK-produced eggs are unaffected. The identified products mainly enter the catering supply chain, with some sold in small shops; they are not sold in large supermarkets. The strain detected in the eggs was associated with 36 infections reported in England in 2026. That is not a count of cases in Wales, and the FSA says the strain differs from those in the separate ongoing imported-egg investigation.
Background and supporting figures
Where this sits
All pack sizes and best-before dates are covered by the same egg stamp; outer-box details can differ after repacking.
The 36 infection cases reported in England in 2026 are not a Welsh case total or a total for the separate imported-egg investigation.
