Amos Miller’s momentum stalls; UK probes hepatitis A clusters

It’s Wednesday, June 11, 2025. We’re halfway through the week and keeping an eye on the latest in food safety.

Organic foods are often seen as cleaner, greener, and safer — but are they? This week’s organic egg recall, tied to a Salmonella outbreak in seven states, has raised questions from readers about whether organic labels mean lower risk.

That brings us to this week’s Wednesday Weigh-In: Do you think organic foods are always safer than non-organic foods? 🥚🌿 Vote at the bottom of the email.

Your answers will shape Saturday’s Weekend Edition, where we’ll explore how consumers view organic products — and what the science really says.

What to know: Amos Miller, the Amish farmer known for selling unpasteurized raw milk, saw his fundraising efforts stall in 2025 after a year of high-profile legal battles and political attention. Despite a recent court win allowing interstate sales, Miller’s once-surging support has slowed to a trickle.

The UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA) is looking into an increase in hepatitis A cases.

UKHSA and other health agencies are investigating two clusters of hepatitis A virus (HAV) with dozens of confirmed patients.

OPINION — Virginia Templet

“Tis the season of summer feasts and boozy barbecues in America. It’s time for a reminder about food safety.”

“This month, World Food Safety Day came and went June 7 with a whimper, and yet food safety affects all of us.”
