Don’t cut the cheese!

Wednesday, December 21st, 2005

A type of Camembert cheese has been removed from sale over concerns it may be contaminated with the bacterium E. coli, which can cause food poisoning.

The FSA is stressing “People should not eat this cheese.”

Affected cheeses:

  • 250g packs of Reaux’s Gaslonde Camembert
  • 250g packs of Camembert de Normandie Th.Reaux
  • 1kg blocks of Reaux’s Gaslonde Camembert which is normally sold over the cheese counter

[no danger to us working class then - I don’t know how people eat that stuff …]

E. coli infection symptoms include bloody diarrhoea and abdominal cramps.
