Goat cheese imported from France to Hong Kong is suspected to be contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes

The Centre for Food Safety (CFS) of the Food and Environmental Hygiene Department in Hong Kong announced on August 27, 2024, that a sample of goat cheese (Ste Maure Touraine AOP Blister) imported from France was detected with possible contamination with Listeria monocytogenes. The CFS reported receiving a notification from the Rapid Alert System for Food and Feed of the European Commission that the product might have been contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes and is being recalled. As a result, the CFS immediately contacted the local importer and informed the importer concerned of the contamination. An investigation revealed that the affected batch of products is still stored in the importer's warehouse and has not entered the local market. @ https://www.cfs.gov.hk/english/press/20240727_11082.html
