We have a listeria problem at a local dairy, that made the news last night, and the local paper today. The state inspection team has been working the problem for a few months, and although they have pinpointed the dairy, the how, where and why is still being investigated. The dairy has decided to stop selling pending the results. I understand that finding the exact source can be hard.
MONTHS???? They’ve been working on it for MONTHS??? Good lord…when did they decide to stop selling, and how much possibly contaminated dairy was sold until they did? Yikes.

When milk (or anything) is pasturised, can listeria live through it?? I see it in the news, more often , recently.
