Outbreak Investigation of E. coli O157:H7: Raw Cheddar Cheese
www.fda.gov
RAW FARM-brand Raw Cheddar Cheese linked to ongoing outbreak. FDA’s investigation is ongoing.

FDA has recommended that RAW FARM, LLC voluntarily remove their raw cheese products from the market, and the firm has declined.

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
