The batches of Toons Bridge Dairy Ricotta and Buffalo Ricotta cheeses, with an origin in Ireland, were recalled yesterday.<\/p>\n

However, the FSAI said there is currently no evidence that this food recall is linked with the listeriosis outbreak related to recent recalls of ready-to-heat meals or spinach and mixed leaves products.<\/p>\n

Toons Bridge Dairy Ricotta and Buffalo Ricotta cheeses have been recalled due to listeria<\/p>\n

The symptoms of Listeria monocytogenes infection can include mild flu-like symptoms or gastrointestinal symptoms, such as nausea, vomiting and diarrhoea.<\/p>\n

In rare cases, the infection can be more severe, causing serious complications.<\/p>\n

Some people are more vulnerable to Listeria monocytogenes infections, including pregnant women, babies and people with weakened immune systems, including the elderly.<\/p>\n

The incubation period, which is the time between initial infection and first symptoms appearing, is on average three weeks, but can range between three and 70 days.<\/p>\n

Separately, a batch of camembert cheese was recalled yesterday due to the possible presence of Shiga toxin-producing E. coli (STEC).<\/p>\n

A batch of Gillot cru Petit Camembert was recalled by the FSAI, with a pack size of 150g, and a best-before date on 26\/08\/2025, with an origin in France.<\/p>\n

Retailers are again requested to remove the implicated batch from sale and display notices at the point of sale, while consumers are advised not to eat the batch.<\/p>\n

Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC), also known as verocytotoxigenic E. coli (VTEC), is a specific group of E. coli.<\/p>\n

While most E. coli are harmless and live in the intestines of healthy humans, STEC produce a powerful toxin which can cause severe illness.<\/p>\n

Symptoms include abdominal cramps and diarrhoea, which can sometimes be bloody, and there is usually little or no fever, and patients recover within five to 10 days.<\/p>\n

However, in some people, particularly children under five years of age and the elderly, the infection can cause a complication called haemolytic uraemic syndrome (HUS).<\/p>\n

In this complication, the red blood cells are destroyed, and the kidneys can stop working properly.<\/p>\n

The time between the initial infection and the first symptoms appearing is typically between three and four days, but can range between one and eight days.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The batches of Toons Bridge Dairy Ricotta and Buffalo Ricotta cheeses, with an origin in Ireland, were recalled…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":28719,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[73],"tags":[7699,79,18,19,17],"class_list":{"0":"post-28718","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-business","8":"tag-adrianna-wrona","9":"tag-business","10":"tag-eire","11":"tag-ie","12":"tag-ireland"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/28718","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=28718"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/28718\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/28719"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=28718"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=28718"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=28718"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
