FDA ties Raw Farm cheddar to multistate E. coli outbreak, Raw Farm disputes the link
The FDA identifies cheddar from California‑based Raw Farm as the likely source of a multistate E. coli O157:H7 outbreak in California, Florida, and Texas, with seven illnesses reported since September 2025; Raw Farm has not recalled its products and disputes the FDA’s link. California had previously recalled some Raw Farm raw milk products after bird flu detections in 2024, while health authorities repeatedly warn against raw milk consumption.
