The authority also reported U distributor brand milk, Monday. This is 1L semi-skimmed milk sold in packs of 6. Here again, the authority deplores an organoleptic defect in the product. “These products were manufactured and/or stored in conditions that do not provide satisfactory health guarantees,” explains the site. They are therefore likely to present a danger to the health of consumers. »
Consumers are therefore recommended to no longer consume the product or to return it to the point of sale.
In recent years, several cases of recall have been issued by the government website regarding bottled milk or in powderafter the scandal of contaminated milk from Lactalis five years ago.
