Sealtest / Agropur Dairy Cooperative
Reviews and Complaints

I purchased a quart of Sealtest 2% milk to make a bread pudding. I made the bread pudding and put it in the fridge overnight and was going to bake it the next day. However, I read an article the next morning about the recall so I called Foodland in Markdale, Ont. and read off the bar code to the person on the phone from Foodland. She told me to bring it back for a full refund. I told her about all the ingredients that I had used to make this bread pudding that was garbage now and she said they could not help me with this and suggested that I would have to get in touch with Sealtest to be reimbursed. So that is why I am writing to you now to get reimbursed for all the products I had to throw out. Please get in contact with me and I will give you the recipe I went by.

Thank you for your time,

We purchaced milk from said store on friday Jan 24 th. My son drank approximately 12 ounces of product late Saturday afternoon. He fell ill a few hours later. Profuse diarrea vomitting shaking sweating which lasted through thr night and all day Sunday. He could not stand or walk. He said he thought he was dying. Telehealth suggested hospital, however he was unable to even tslk much and did not want to go as the wait at hospitsl would have been far too much for him to bear. Today is Mondsy, he is now just getting up and sitting. But remains wesk, dehydrated, and lethargic. We feel that being compensated for the 4 liters of milk is unjust and seek remedial action. At this point we do not even want to purchace from sealtest anympre after this unfortunate occurance

Hello and thanks for your consideration.

We purchased a bag of 1% 4L milk last week. It appears to be a part of the batch affected and mentioned on the news. Our son and youngest daughter felt nausea. My wife and I were fine. Barcode [protected] if that helps.

We threw out the third of three bags tonight.

Do you refund for provide a coupon for replacement of this product?

Thank you,
Craig Campbell

PS Sealtest kindly sponsored my Atom hockey team in 1974-75.

I bought two bags of milk at Costco yesterday thinking after the first was like water it was possibly a one off but after opening the second I realized it had to be some sort of horrible mistake. The fist bag was watery but white in colour but tasted like water the second bag isn't even white and I'm not gonna try to try it but w kids and coffee I'm disappointed

My name is Del Difelice. We have been buying milk at sobeys at kipling /Queensway mall for years. In the last 6-8 weeks, and we shop once a week for skim milk, we have had a bag of Skim milk leak inside the bigger bag Housing all three bags at least 4-5 times. It's a waste of a Litre of milk not to mention the mess to clean up. Not impressed! Think you need to get the department that makes or seal the Litre plastic bags to do a better job! Unhappy customer!

Expire August 7th (2019)REG>1478 07:04 9B x 2 1 liter containers
You may want to re-inspect this batch of product l purchased 2 liters of this 1% with August 7th expire dated last Friday July 26/2019 from Walmart pulled the one out today July 29/19 went to pour it over my cereal and it was chunkier than the cereal.
Opened the second one same thing, curdled and smelt rotten l know my fridge is working fine as l have been drinking cold water from it all weekend.

On April 1st, 2019 we snipped open a new bag of milk (3.25% M.F.). As we were going to pour the milk into our coffee we noticed a small black object floating in the milk. Looking closer we realized it was a bug about 5 mm. long and with wings.
We bought our 4 litre bag of Sealtest Agropur milk (3.25% M.F.) at Costco, Kanata, Ontario. On the clear plastic side is written (AL 10 AGRT (1490) 13:38 3).
We are quite concerned about the cleanliness of your processing facility. When did this bug enter into the sealed bag? Hopefully your company will look into this cleanliness problem. Unfortunately this has made both of us quite leery about drinking milk now.

Good afternoon,

I'm writing to inform you that there may be an issue with the batch of milk (3.25% homogenized in the red and white bag and carton) with an expiry date of December the 4th, 2018.

On Saturday November 24th, I picked up a bag of milk (3L) package for my 14month old and 4 year old children. After opening the bag, I poured a bottle for my baby and noticed after her feeding, the milk had curdled. I didn't notice at first but figured it curdled more after I had heated the bottle. We returned the bag of milk to the same store the following day (November 25th), also showing the residue on the bag to the merchant. My husband picked up a carton in exchange and the same incident occurred with the Carton. The milk has curdled in my daughters bottle. This never happens after heating the Bottle. We threw out that milk and November 26th, I returned to another store in our town (3rd time) thinking it may have been an issue with the store and purchased another bag of milk with the same expiry date. We noticed that this bag was ok but tasted a little sour. Three separate occurrences happened in two different stores. I'm wondering if its an issue with the batch. As you can see, the milk hasn't gone passed the expiry date of December 4th, 2018.

My concern is that the batch is bad and people should not be consuming the product, certainly not young children (in our case). As of yet, I didn't notice any symptoms in my children, hopefully this will remain the case. please feel free to contact me should you have any further questions or concerns.

Sincerely,

Melissa Wilson

We have had numerous problems with the Sealtest 2 litre carton milk containers. The manufacturer of the carton seems to apply too much adhesive the the pouring lid of the two litre milk carton which makes it almost unable to fold open. A pointy knife is required to cut the area where the excessive glue is, usually resulting in tearing and jaggedness of the pouring spout causing uneven pouring and spilling of the milk.
I suggest the carton's manufacturer correct this issue or I shall stop purchasing this Sealtest product, as I do not prefer to fight with the spout and having to tape it up as shown in the attached picture.
May thanks for your indulgence,
Sincerely,
Rudy Kryger

I had bought one packet of milk from no frills and after I opened it I found that it was expired or was not in good condition.I found some white particles inside it.This happened with me two times back to back.Also, the packet of milk was not expired.It was going to be expired after 10-12 days after I bought it.So I dumped the milk as it was not healthy.Please take a action and try to find solution for it.

I found a deaad fly in my milk carton today at lunch- it ended up in my mouth unfortunately- feeling a bit disgusted but know these things can happen- is there any chance of some compensation? I work in a hospital and it was purchased at our hospital cafeteria. I have not had this experience before and I purchase Sealtest chocolate milk or regular milk most days. Thank you for considering!

I have gotten at least 8 bags of this milk and it has gone sour before the expiry date I currently have 3 bags in my fridge that I bought the other day and they've are already sour and chunky. This is very disgusting. I can buy neilson milk that is dated a month away and will last till that date. Your milk blows I want my money back. Very disappointed

in an economy where every penny counts... (or maybe i should say where every nickel counts considering the penny is no longer a coin produced in Canada... ), nonetheless, money is undoubtedly budgeted in most households and purchasing a product means trusting the overall quality and quantity to dollar ratio. In our small town of 2500 residents, you can imagine that the majority of our population consists of low income family households. After our beloved Laurentian Dairy closed their doors nearly 5 years ago, it was a struggle to find a milk company that could even come close to their quality reputation. However, after many horrid experiences with Beatrice milk products ( most families in Mattawa would have a handful of stories of their own about their own Beatrice mishaps), Sealtest was a breath of fresh air and was definetely level with the Laurentian milk we all had missed so much.
Yesterday was my grocery run. Just as any other normal grocery run, your milk is always at the top of the list. Needless to say, we purchased a bag of white milk ( no issues with the white milk) and a bag of chocolate milk trusting that the advertisement of 3L was accurate. I took one of the bags and was about o put it in the milk jug, when i noticed it was half full. Obviously thinking there must have been a hole in that bag, I inspected the other two bags that were left in the encasing package bag to find there was no puddle of spilled milk and the other two bags were just as empty. What a disappointing experience. I definetely was mislead in the quantity to dollar ratio factor resulting in the fact that I doubt I'll ever spend 6$ on another bag of chocolate milk again. There's no logic to spending the unnecessary cash when a bottle of Nesquick would last maybe two bags of white milk if not longer.

3 milk bags 4LTR each, we bought from sunny location in Markham, were leaking !
This is $5 value each
But happened not only once three times in in one week!
This happened due to the seal wasn't properly done by the manufacturer! please look in to this as this is not healthy to purchase an open milk !
We need help can you please email me your response to [protected]@live.com

Purchased from walmart in scarborough on sunday may 28th. Located at 300 borough drive. A small piece of scrap metal was found at the bottom of the bag while i was preparing my toddlers bottles. Completely unacceptable and unsanitary. Thank goodness i saw the metal piece before pouring the milk into my sons bottle. Your quality assurance is obviously not doing their job.

At 1145am today a Sealtest delivery truck was delivering dairy products to Tim Horton's (corner of Queen St and Lyon St, Ottawa ON) and parked on the street blocking the exit to a parking lot. The driver motioned "two" meaning two minutes and took two hand trucks of milk crates full of milk. 10min later they came out of the building. I asked if they could move the truck, the response was he wouldn't until he was done. Only after telling him I would call Bylaw would he move the truck.

I am extremely disappointed with Sealtest if this is how you train your staff who are representing your company. How is it that politeness has gone out the window? Can you please explain to me what your company policy is on these situations? As a consumer I patronize companies who have their customer's in mind. If this isn't the case with Sealtest, then I will need to re-consider which dairy products I use.

Have purchased in the last month (August 2016) three of your 2% 2 litre
cardboard containers. all three have spoiled before their best before date.
The latest had a best before date of September 14, 2016 and was lumpy and
smelt bad on September 7, 2016 and returned to the store ( Metro in Kingston
Ontario) Yes I kept it in a fridge.

The best before date tag was Nov 27, 2015 but on the litre bag inside it says Nov 19. Today's date is the 18th and the first bag tasted off, not sour, but a strong unnatural taste a day or two after I bought it on Nov 6. I would appreciate knowing what the problem was and hope it doesn't happen again. I don't like wasting money especially because I don't have much to use never mind waste. On the bag it says: No 19 Reg 1478 13:47 7.

You have a delivery driver that thinks he is in the middle of nowhere. It's 2:30a.m in Central hamilton tonight it's truck 002, cursing yelling, joking, with no regard for anyone else just being ignorant and rude.The. F word several times. I've finally have had enough. If I don't see any kind of change and remorsefulness in some forms, l shouldn't have to tell you how. I'm going to my. MP and city council. I am also going to speak to the owner of the Tim Hortons at Main and Wentworth. In hamilton.may I suggest you tell them to just do their job respectfully and to remember not everyone needs to be up that early. Thank you Georgia.Carbary P, S. This is every night of the week. Or I would not have a problem if only occasionally. lm not a total prude just a concerned neighböurhööd resident.

i went to open and drink my brand new milk and i got a awffle taste of soured milk in my mouth and the expiration date was not for a few days i have to throw away my brand new milk that i just bought i will never be buying from you again and i want all my friends not to buy your milkbecause this is not the first time that this has happened so i suggest you fix your problem thank you.
