A range of milk varieties have now been recalled over fears they may be contaminated with e.coli.
Lion Dairy & Drinks (LD&D) has recalled their Dairy Choice Full Cream 2 Litre and Community Co ‘The Good Drop’ Full Cream 2 Litre milks.
The products have been available for sale at IGA stores and various independents in NSW.
The product, which has a use by date of February 25, may be contaminated by e.coli which can cause illness if consumed.
Aldi issued a full cream milk variety recall on Friday and the NSW Food Authority has advised the community of the supermarket’s product recall of three-litre Farmdale Full Cream Milk which was sold in stores throughout the ACT and NSW.
7-Eleven also issued a product recall on Thursday for its 7-Eleven Full Cream Milk two-litre product, with the use by date of February 24. The product was available at stores in NSW and the ACT.
“Consumers should not consume this product but return it to the place of purchase or contact Aldi for a full refund,” the NSW Food Authority said in a statement on Friday.
“Any consumers concerned about their health should seek medical advice.”
It comes as Dairy Farmers milk was also pulled from supermarket shelves across NSW.
A recall was issued for Dairy Farmer’s Full Cream milk manufactured in NSW on Thursday after concerns a Penrith manufacturing site may have been contaminated with the bacteria.
E.coli is known to cause food poisoning and produce symptoms like vomiting, diarrhoea, stomach pain and fever.
Lion Dairy & Drinks issued the warning on Thursday and urged anyone who consumed the milk and feels sick to see their doctor.
The product’s owner said the milk has “a food safety issue” and “may cause illness” if consumed.
“We encourage anyone who has consumed the Dairy Farmers 3L or 1L Full Cream white milk product with the respective Use by Dates and made and sold in New South Wales and who feels unwell to seek medical advice as required,” they warned.
Anyone who has bought the milk is being urged not to consume them and call the Lion Dairy & Drinks Consumer Enquiries Centre on 1800 677 852 for a full refund.
Lion Dairy said no complaints had been made about the product yet.
