M&S 'Do Not Eat' Warning over Disease-Causing Bacteria that Can Lead to Meningitis
The Food Standards Agency said the cheese was sold in Northern Ireland and can be returned for a full refund.
- The Food Standards Agency issued a recall yesterday for M&S Food Truffle Gouda sold in Northern Ireland due to the presence of Listeria Monocytogenes.
- Unlike many food-related bacteria, Listeria Monocytogenes is exceptionally resilient, surviving and multiplying in cold environments like refrigerators while resisting salt and acidic conditions.
- The recall covers 150g packs with a best before date of Octobet 9 and product code 29424887. Customers must not consume the product and should return it for a full refund.
- While most people experience mild flu-like symptoms, Listeria can cause severe complications including meningitis in vulnerable populations: those over 65, pregnant women, and immunocompromised individuals.
- Marks and Spencer apologized for the inconvenience and directed affected customers to contact them on 03330 148555 for refunds or additional information about the recalled Truffle Gouda.
