Salmonella recall in Cheese
Here is an interesting recall. National Foods, an Australian Dairy manufacturer is recalling their cheese under the Tilba Cheese brand because of salmonella detection. The implicated cheese is Tilba Club Cheese, Tilba Trilogy - Vintage, Summer Herbs and Sundried Tomato. 140g Wedge. Plastic (Thermoform) Wrap. Best Before 28 August 2007.
Salmonella testing in cheese is not a requirement by state regulation unless there are ingredients added after pasteurization. In this case it’s the herbs and sundried tomato and I would definitely sue this company if the link proved positive. It looks like National Foods do not have a qualified or experienced microbiologist and this could be regular occurrences considering the recall of their pasteurized milk from E.coli earlier this year.
I think I’ll stick with my favorite cheese, Coon.
