Surprise, Surprise - E. coli in Cow Shit Cause of Simsbury Town Farm Dairy's Raw Milk Problem

By Bill Marler, Esq.

Press reports today announced the obvious - Cow Shit (a.k.a fecal matter) from one cow at Town Farm Dairy farm caused five people (at least a few children) to get sick with E. coli (E. coli O157:H7), according to the state Department of Agriculture.  Department representatives said fecal matter (a.k.a. Cow Shit) from one cow contained E. coli bacteria and “somehow” made its way into the raw milk sold by the dairy.  The link among the five people who became ill was that each had consumed raw milk from the dairy farm, officials have said.  Tests found E. coli in the fecal matter (a.k.a. Cow Shit) of one cow and investigators said they believe that fecal matter (a.k.a. Cow Shit) could have gotten into the milk during or after the milking process.  Rumor has it that at least one of the ill purchased the Cow Shit (a.k.a fecal matter) contaminated milk at Whole Foods.
