Harrisburg, PA – Consumers who purchased Whole Milk (labeled as pasteurized) bottled by Pasture Maid Creamery LLC, 571 Cow Path Lane, New Castle, PA 16101, with a best by date of 2/5/16 should discard the milk.

The milk was sold in ½ gallon glass bottles and one-pint size plastic bottles. The milk was sold at both retail stores and on property at the farm. The label on the milk – a small circular label affixed to the lid – is printed with the following information:
