Don’t drink the dairy shakes. They might give you diarrhea.

Defense Department officials are warning all military personnel to temporarily avoid drinking dairy shakes found in Meals, Ready to Eat and Unitized Group Rations-Express because they might contain Salmonella.

“There is a remote chance that we might have some dairy shakes that could have some Salmonella,” Gerry Darsch, director of the DoD Combat Feeding Program, told Army Times on Wednesday.

That means that potentially there are about 12 million dairy shakes in MREs that could be affected, Darsch said.
