Milk Recalled in Five Northeastern States

Milk sold in New York, Connecticut, Massachusetts, New Jersey and Rhode Island has been recalled because it might not have been properly pasteurized.

New York regulators say the milk was marketed under the brand names Midland Farms, Corrado's Market, Jersey Dairy Farms and Trade Fair Premium.  The sizes range from pints to gallons and can be found in stores across the five northeastern states.

Inspectors found failed pasteurization equipment at the Midlands Farm plant near Albany on Tuesday.  The company agreed to the voluntary recall as a precaution against bacterial contaminants like listeria and salmonella. There have been no reports of illness as of Thursday. 

Consumers should look for the plant code 36-1661 and a September 24 date code. Contaminated milk should be returned to the place it was purchased.
