A warning advising against the consumption of milk has been issued due to the presence of veterinary medicine, including penicillin, in the product.
Graham’s Family Dairy has initiated a recall of semi-skimmed milk available in 1 litre, 2 litre, and 1 pint bottles with an expiration date of July 31, 2026. The recall specifically applies to England.
As Scotland’s largest independent dairy company, Graham’s Family Dairy supplies a range of dairy products, including milk, butter, yogurts, and ice cream, to various supermarkets and shops across the UK.
In response to the issue, the family-owned business has released a recall notice for the affected items and extended apologies to its customers. The notice emphasizes the company’s commitment to product quality and consumer safety.
The precautionary recall was prompted by the potential presence of trace levels of antibiotics in the milk, posing a risk to individuals allergic to antibiotics. Customers are urged not to consume the following products and to return them to the point of purchase for a refund: one pint semi-skimmed milk, one litre semi-skimmed milk, and two litre semi-skimmed milk, all with a use-by date of July 31.
The Food Standards Agency has confirmed that the contaminated product is unsafe for consumption, especially for individuals with a penicillin allergy. Consumers are advised to return the affected product to the store of purchase for a full refund.
It is essential to note that this issue is isolated to the specified Grahams Family Dairies products with the mentioned Use By Dates, and no other products are affected.
