Prairie Farms recalls fat-free milk over possible contamination

Prairie Farms is recalling certain gallons of fat-free milk after discovering they may contain food-grade cleaning agents, according to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

The milk was produced at the company’s Dubuque, Iowa, facility and sold exclusively at Woodman’s stores in Illinois and Wisconsin. The recalled gallons carry a December 8 expiration date.

Prairie Farms says it was alerted to a potential quality issue earlier this week. More than 300 gallons had already been sold before the problem was identified, FDA reports.

Consumers are urged to throw out the affected milk or return it to the store for a refund. The company says all remaining recalled products have been removed from shelves.
