The California Department of Food and Agriculture has detected Listeria monocytogenes bacteria in raw milk cheese produced in the state of Missouri and sold in California.
The bacteria was found in two cheese products labeled as Morningland Dairy Raw Milk Cheese Garlic Colby and Morningland Dairy Raw Milk Cheese Hot Pepper Colby, both manufactured at processing plant number 29-428 in Mountain View, MO. The products were shipped from the Missouri plant to locations in the California counties of Mendocino, Santa Cruz, Los Angeles and San Diego.
Listeria monocytogenes may cause listeriosis among at risk people, including pregnant women, newborns, older adults, and people with weakened immune systems. Symptoms include fever, muscle aches, and sometimes nausea or diarrhea. If infection spreads to the nervous system, symptoms such as headache and stiff neck can occur. Infected pregnant women may experience only mild, flu-like illness; however, infections during pregnancy can lead to more serious problems for the fetus. Consumers should seek immediate medical care if they develop these symptoms.
Consumers should discard the cheese or return it to the place of purchase. No illnesses have been reported.
After the recall, Morningland Dairy, under the supervision of the State Milk Board, sent 14 samples of Morningland Dairy’s cheese to a St. Louis laboratory to be tested. All 14 samples tested positive for Staphylococcus Aureus and 6 of the samples tested positive for Listeria Monocytogenes. The State Milk Board on October 1 condemned all cheese products the company manufactured between January 1 and August 26 and ordered that they be destroyed. Morningland Dairy refused to destroy the condemned cheese.
Psst. The dairy industry paid for the legislation to make raw milk sales illegal. RW dolts....

Hey if people want to drink raw milk then let them as long as they are making an informed decision it's nobody's business.
Did they plant the staph and listeria in the milk, too?
And pssssst, raw milk sales are not illegal, rube.

And pssssst, raw milk sales are not illegal, rube.Yes, they are. You can either get your own cow, buy a share of a cow and get it that way, or buy it as "pet food". Otherwise, it is illegal to sell to another human being for consumption.
And if there was listeria present, it could be due to many things. Raw milk from pastured cows is much safer than the antibiotic filled, growth hormone laden homogenized crap you buy at the grocery store. I can guarantee you that. Everyone drank raw milk before pasteuerization.

If he's running a dirty barn, how long do you think people will continue to buy it from him until he cleans up his act? You know, that free market crap you guys are always hooting about? It isn't the government demonizing raw milk, it's the politicians bought by the dairy lobby.

And when they feed it to their babies who are unable to consent?

Last time I checked, parents were responsible for their children. Are you responsible for all the children now? Do you think people who choose to drink raw milk are too stupid to feed their children properly?

Yes, I do think they are too stupid to feed their children properly. I know a lot of parents who are too stupid to immunize their children, and who give their children homeopathic medications. And there are children who have died as the result of faith healing in lieu of being taken to a doctor.
You really have to ask that question?
Antibiotics and growth hormones are not added during the homogenization process, idiot.
And a lot of people died from raw milk before pasteurization. That's why pasteurization was invented, dumbass!! Jesus!

How many have died due to the ministrations of doctors and hospitals?
Think we should send the FDA to put them out of business, too?
My parents were raised on raw milk, as were all of their generation. Somehow, they managed to live through it.
I expect their parents would've happily shot anyone with the temerity to suggest they were too stupid to raise thier children.
I think statists are too stupid to vote, but I'm not going to send anyone around to arrest them for it.
