A recent food safety incident has been reported involving the detection of mold in pasteurized cagliata cheese originating from Ukraine. This incident falls under the category of bio-contaminants, which poses potential health risks to consumers.
Mold contamination in cheese can lead to various health issues, particularly for individuals with weakened immune systems, allergies, or respiratory conditions.
