What is this? Some packs of burrata cheese from Belgium have the wrong “use-by” date printed on the label.

What's happening? The date shown on the label may be later than the real safe date, so the cheese could go off sooner than you think.

Does this affect me? If you bought burrata in Belgium or Luxembourg, check the label now.

What should I do? Throw the cheese away or return it and ask your pharmacist or doctor if you feel unwell.
