Corleggy Cheese has recalled its Cavanbert and Drumlin raw cow's milk cheeses, as they were made with milk from a herd in which animals tested positive for TB, the Food Safety Authority of Ireland (FSAI) has said.

Recall

Cheeses with best before dates up to 14/02/19 for Cavanbert and up to 13/03/19 for Drumlin are being recalled.

Mycobacterium bovis causes TB in cattle and consumption of contaminated dairy products can cause human TB, the FSAI said.

No other Corleggy Cheese products are implicated.

Cavanbert Cheese and Drumlin Cheese with best before dates after 14/2/19 and 13/3/19 respectively are not subject to the recall.
