People who purchased raw whole milk from Pot ‘O Gold Dairy Specialties in Bear Lake, Warren County are asked to throw it out after it was linked to cases of salmonella, the Pennsylvania Department of Health announced Friday.

Raw whole milk was sold from Sept. 10 to present in glass, half-gallon containers with the Pot O’ Gold label at 16 stores in Crawford, Erie, McKean, Venango and Warren counties.

Nine cases of salmonella have been reported. It causes diarrhea, fever, abdominal cramps and vomiting. While most recover in four to seven days, salmonella can be more serious in older adults, infants and those with chronic illnesses. Anyone who consumed the milk and became ill should consult their physicians. This is reportedly only linked to the raw whole milk product.
