Milk urgently recalled from UK supermarkets due to contamination fears

  • An urgent "do not consume" warning has been issued for Graham's Family Dairy semi-skimmed milk due to potential contamination with penicillin.
  • The recall specifically applies to one-litre, two-litre, and single-pint bottles of semi-skimmed milk with an expiration date of 31 July 2026, sold across the UK.
  • Food Standards Scotland stated the recall is due to the "presence of veterinary medicines," which may pose a health risk , particularly for individuals with allergies to antibiotics like penicillin.
  • Customers who have purchased the affected milk are advised not to consume it and should return it to the place of purchase for a full refund.
  • Graham's Family Dairy, Scotland's largest independent dairy company, has apologised for the issue and confirmed that no other products or use-by dates are affected by this precautionary measure.
