Three further goats cheese products recalled over listeria
The first of the three different products being recalled is SuperValu Goat's Cheese, 110g, with the use by dates of 7 August and 12 August.
'Freshly Prepared by Our Cheesemongers Goats Cheese', in a variety of pack sizes and with the use by dates of 11 August and 12 August has also been issued with a food recall notice.
SuperValu Chevre Log in a variety of pack sizes, in all use by dates up to an including today, have also been recalled.
The Food Safety Authority of Ireland (FSAI) has requested that retailers remove the products from sale and display recall notices at point of sale.
Consumers have been advised not to eat the implicated batch.
The recall notice follows a separate FSAI notice issued yesterday for a batch of Spar Chèvre goats cheese that was recalled due to the possible presence of listeria monocytogenes.
The authority said there is currently no evidence that this food recall is linked with the listeriosis outbreak related to ready-to-heat meals or the recall of spinach and mixed leaves products.
The FSAI said symptoms of listeria can include mild flu-like symptoms, or gastrointestinal symptoms such as nausea, vomiting and diarrhoea.
In rare cases, the infection can be more severe, causing serious complications.
The authority said that certain individuals, like babies, pregnant women, and those with weakened immune systems, like the elderly, are more vulnerable to listeria monocytogenes infections.
The incubation period, or the time between initial infection and first symptoms appearing, is on average three weeks, according to the FSAI, but can range between three and 70 days.
