Bluesky thread

The FDA has asked Raw Farm to recall the cheddar cheese linked to the outbreak and “it has declined.” But E.coli 0157 H7 is a very pathogenic bacteria. So buyer be aware and beware here. 1/3

Half of Raw Farm’s Wiki page is the “Health and legal incidents” section.

    From the Bluesky thread

    I had no idea a company could just decline to recall a toxic product!

    Yes, most recalls are voluntary at the FDA’s request. And most companies comply due to fear of litigation. But recently I’ve seen more refusals, notably by supplement manufacturers and other “health food” companies.
