#Listeriosis #death heightens spectre of Irish #FoodSafety concerns as "extensive outbreak" of bacterial pathogens found in island food supply.

While #Ireland's national #health officials have not even pinpointed the source, fresh #spinach considered contaminated by #dairy animal fecal matter has been #recalled, and animal products such as soft and #unpasteurized cheeses, deli #meats, smoked fish are also potential culprits.

There's apparently a trendy movement promoting the consumption of #rawMilk based on the false notion that #unpasteurized #milk is somehow healthier (#naturalisticFallacy).

Raw milk is not healthier than #pasteurized milk, and it can cause issues like #nausea, #diarrhea, #vomiting or, in some cases, #seriousIllness. Don't subject yourself and your family to unnecessary danger for the sake of adhering to a misguided and misinformed trend.
