More people have been sickened and hospitalized with E.coli in an outbreak linked to eating cheese made with raw milk. Five reported consuming raw cheddar cheese, sold either in a block or shredded, and two reported consuming raw milk. Investigators have urged RAW FARM to recall the affected cheese products, but the company has refused the request and said its products are safe to eat. Officials are warning people not to consume RAW FARM Raw Cheddar cheese and RAW FARM Raw Cheddar Simply Shredded. It is not clear how the cheeses may have become contaminated, but it could be from exposure to feces from cows being accidentally mixed into milk products.
