What about cheese made from raw milk?

[-] tal@lemmy.today 9 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

I think I read something saying that they don't know for sure.

googles

The FDA says that they don't know yet and don't recommend eating it.

https://www.fda.gov/food/alerts-advisories-safety-information/updates-highly-pathogenic-avian-influenza-hpai

Because of the limited information available about the possible transmission of H5N1 virus via raw milk, the FDA continues to recommend that industry does not manufacture or sell raw milk or raw milk products, including raw milk cheese, made with milk from cows showing symptoms of illness, including those infected with avian influenza viruses or exposed to those infected with avian influenza viruses.

Cheese made from raw milk is a great way to get all sorts of fun diseases like listeriosis.

The cheese making process is also unlikely to kill then virus but the aging process likely will.

Are you really gonna chance it?

[-] lemmylommy@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago

I usually do. Lots of cheese is made from raw milk. Camembert, Emmentaler, Roquefort, Parmigiano and many more.

Of course I do wonder now.

Cheese from raw milk is already "not recommended" in my country for a number of people like immuncompromized, pregnant, etc. Basically, it is already known to be risky because of other sources of infection, H5N1 is just another "+1" for the pool of problems.
