Raw Cream from Ferme de la Vache Meuhg’lait Recalled in Brittany over Listeria Risk

French food safety authorities have issued an urgent recall of a raw cream product sold in Brittany after tests identified contamination with Listeria monocytogenes. The affected item is the 250‑gram "Ferme de la Vache Meuhg’lait" raw cream, lot 145, with a use‑by date of 07 June 2026, distributed between 26 May and 07 June 2026 through several local retailers and farm stalls. Consumers who purchased this lot are advised to stop consumption immediately, return the product to the point of sale, or destroy it, and may receive a refund until 19 June 2026. Listeria can cause serious infection, especially in pregnant women, the elderly, and immunocompromised individuals, with symptoms such as fever, headache, and muscle aches that may appear up to eight weeks after exposure. Anyone experiencing these symptoms after consuming the recalled cream should seek medical attention and inform their doctor of the exposure.
