Contaminated cheese is urgently recalled in all Tesco stores over bacteria that causes meningitis & pregnancy loss
RACLETTE wheels are being urgently removed from supermarket shelves after Listeria fears. Tesco customers are being warned to check their 150g packs of Le Superbe Raclette with a best before date of 12 May 2025. The French cheese, supplied to the store by Castelli UK Ltd is believed to have the possible presence of Listeria monocytogenes. Listeria poisoning includes high temperature, muscle ache or pain, chills, feeling or being sick and diarrhoea. In rare cases, the infection can be more severe, causing serious complications, such as meningitis or miscarriage. What foods are most likely to cause listeriosis? Although listeria can contaminate a wide range of foods, it is more common in ready-to-eat foods. Ready-to-eat foods are foods which are intended to be eaten without further preparation, such as heating or cooking. Examples include: Cold pre-cooked meats – such as chicken Deli meats – such as salami and cold cuts Smoked and cured fish – including sushi Cooked shellfish Soft mould-ripened cheeses – such as camembert, brie, and blue-veined cheeses Pâté Unpasteurised milk, or products made from unpasteurised milk Pre-prepared sandwiches and salads Pre-cut fruits (for example, pre-packed melon slices) To reduce the risk of listeriosis, it's important to: Keep foods cold until you are ready to eat them - make sure your fridge temperature is set at 5°C or below. Refrigerate foods as soon as possible after purchase Eat ready-to-eat foods within four hours of removing them from the fridge Always eat, cook or freeze foods by their use-by date. Foods after their use-by date may look and smell fine, but they could be unsafe and make you ill. You cannot see, smell or taste bacteria that causes foodborne illness. Always follow the storage instructions, including those for opened foods, provided on the label. If there are no instructions, use opened foods within two days. Keep raw and ready-to-eat foods separate to avoid cross-contamination Follow the cooking instructions on packaging when applicable, and cook or reheat foods (including frozen vegetables) until they are steaming hot right through Wash your hands regularly with soap and water before, during and after meal preparation More to follow...
