Wegmans issued a recall this week for its ultra-pasteurized half-and-half cartons.
The grocery chain Wegmans has issued a recall for its ultra-pasteurized half-and-half product due to possible improper testing.The recall, issued on Tuesday, is for Wegmans' one-quart cartons of its half-and-half with the UPC code 7789048671. The supermarket said in a news release that the raw milk used in the half-and-half many not have been properly tested for antibiotic residue.The recalled items have a best-by date of October 10 and plant code of 36-1287.
'As farmers work with veterinarians to support the health care of their dairy animals, it is sometimes necessary to treat cows with drugs when they are ill,' the FDA said in a 2015 report about a milk drug residue sample survey conducted by the agency.'After a cow is treated with a drug, drug residues may be present in milk or meat if the cow is milked or sent to slaughter before the drug has been metabolized and adequately cleared from its system,' read the report.
