Popular cheese recalled due to contamination scare

A popular cheese sold in supermarkets across Australia has been recalled due to fears it has been contaminated with E.coli.

The snack,  “L’Artisan Organic Marcel”, which is manufactured by Mortlake Organic Dairy, has been available in supermarkets in Victoria and Queensland, including IGA, along with independent grocers in South Australia. It was also for sale at select Coles Local stores in Victoria.

E.coli contamination is believed to be the reason for the recall, according to Food Standards Australia.

“Food products contaminated with E.coli may cause illness if consumed,” Food Standards Australia has advised.

 

“Any consumers concerned about their health should seek medical advice and should return the product to the place of purchase for a full refund.”
