The
products recalled are: Maleny Dairies Low Fat Milk, Full Cream Milk and
Farmers Choice Guernsey Milk with use-by dates of October 24 and 25,
Maleny Dairies Skim Milk with a use-by date of October 22, Maleny
Dairies Chocolate, Coffee and Strawberry varieties with a use-by date of
October 25 and Maleny Dairies Goats Milk with use-by dates of October
24 and 25.
A
Maleny Dairies spokesperson said the products had been recalled after
the business received several phone calls from customers, who complained
of a "funny taste in the milk". The only chemicals used in the
production line are food-grade cleaners and sanitisers and testing to
date have come up negative.
He continued, "Most of the calls were about low-fat milk with a use-by date of October 24.”
Consumers can return any of the above products to the place of purchase for a full refund.
For more information, call Maleny Dairies on 5494 2392.
FURTHER INFORMATION - October 25th, 2011
Maleny Dairies milk recall!
Chemicals not the problem!
Following a recall on dairy products manufactured by Maleny Dairies with a best by date of October 24th there appears to be an answer.
It was first thought that there may have been a contamination of the product with some non-harmful food grade cleaning fluids.
The results of testing has come back and cleaning fluids and other chemicals have been ruled out.
A Maleny Dairies spokesperson said, “The taste has been traced to the cows munching on too much clover in the hinterland pastures.”
This voluntary product recall has cost Maleny Dairies $50,000.
