Sally Jackson cheeses are all soft raw milk cheeses and are sold to restaurants and in retail stores. Raw dairy products have been linked to previous E.coli outbreaks. Customers who bought these cheeses should return the product where it was purchased.
The company is located in Washington, where state officials are investigating reports of E.coli and have named Sally Jackson Cheeses as a potential source. The possible efects of E.coli are diarrhea, kidney failure, or death.
