The French government revealed that the affected cheeses are produced by the German firm Käserei Zurwies under the brand names: Ilot-Rouge-Bleu, L’amour rouge d’Antoine, Brique au Carvi, Le Vacherin and Madagasko.
Some of the affected cheese has already been sold and a statement issued by the government recommended that they be destroyed.
