FSANZ statement of Egg Safety

1/2/2016

 
Picture
FSANZ published a statement of egg safety in January 2016 in response to concerns about eggs being unrefrigerated in retail storage. FSANZ conducted a major risk assessment of eggs safety in 2011 and has concluded there is no food safety reason to require whole eggs to be refrigerated at retail, however retailers may choose to refrigerate eggs for their own reasons (for example, to maintain quality of the egg such as firmness of the yolk or reduce spoilage).
Whole un-cracked eggs aren’t required to be refrigerated at retail supermarkets within Australia.
Dishes containing raw eggs as an ingredient, like raw egg mayonnaise, are considered high risk and they do require refrigeration. This is because pathogens may contaminate the raw egg when the egg is cracked.
Refer to the statement for safe egg handling strategies, including hand washing, use of a egg separator and avoidance of raw egg products by vulnerable populations
