Food Safety Report: Raw milk products from Michigan farm - Do not eat advisory.
5 years ago •source mlive.com
Michigan, United States
The Michigan Department of Agriculture and Rural Development (MDARD) has been issued a do not eat advisory for raw milk products produced at a Michigan dairy farm owned by John Shetler in Morley, because it is unlicensed and in violation of the Manufacturing Milk Law.The violations were discovered during a routine inspection of a convenience store in Clare, where the MDARD found approximately 75 pounds of raw milk butter being offered for retail sale. The butter was placed under seizure and subsequently voluntarily disposed of by the retailer.
It is not known if the farm has sold products to other retail locations or if products other than raw milk butter have been produced for sale. Retail stores selling products from Shetler’s farm, an unlicensed, unapproved source, are subject to regulatory action under the Food Law.
Retail Stores should immediately remove those products from sale, hold the products in a safe place away from any sales areas, and contact their food inspector.
Raw milk is milk that has not been pasteurized to kill harmful bacteria. It can carry dangerous pathogens, such as Brucella, Campylobacter, Cryptosporidium, E. coli, Listeria, and Salmonella, which can pose serious health risks.
