The Next Cheese E. coli 0157:H7 Outbreak
Consumers should not eat Sally Jackson cheese due to a risk of E. coli 0157:H7, according to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.
"All Sally Jackson cheeses on the market should be avoided because the products were processed under conditions that create a significant risk of contamination, and because Sally Jackson cheeses have been identified as one possible source of several cases of Escherichia coli (E. coli) O157:H7 infections,'' FDA said Friday in a press release.
National food safety law firm PritzkerOlsen, P.A., has opened a cheese E. coli claims center for members of the public who have been sickened after eating artisanal raw milk cheese, including any style of Sally Jackson cheese. A cheese E. coli lawsuit already has been filed by PritzkerOlsen on behalf of an Arizona family sickened by E. coli 0157:H7 in raw milk cheese sold and sampled at Costco in Arizona, California, Colorado, New Mexico and Nevada. We are representing 7 people sickened in that outbreak, including a woman who developed hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS) and almost died.

Cheese products from the Oroville, Wash., company were distributed nationwide, including Alaska and Hawaii, to restaurants, distributors, and retail stores. An investigation by the FDA and its Washington and Oregon health partners found that the cheese was processed under conditions that created high risks of contamination and is one possible source of illness in the ongoing investigation.
Sally Jackson brand cheeses are made from raw cow, goat, and sheep milk.The three types of cheese are all soft raw milk cheeses in various sized pieces. The products do not have labels or codes. The cow and sheep milk cheeses are wrapped in chestnut leaves, the goat cheese is wrapped in grape leaves and all are secured with twine. The cheeses may have an outer wrapping of waxed paper.
