Attention, cheese lovers: Your cheeses could be contaminated—check your fridge now!
- Replies 0
As you prep for gatherings or grab your favorite cheeses, there's an urgent health alert you need to know. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has just recalled several soft cheese products over contamination risks.
This could impact your next cheese platter—find out what’s at risk!
The cheeses in question, which include popular Brie and Camembert varieties, have been sold at Aldi, Market Basket, and other select grocery stores across the United States.
The FDA has issued a recall on several soft cheese products due to potential contamination with Listeria monocytogenes, a harmful bacterium that poses serious health risks.
Unfortunately, the specific states where these products were distributed have not been disclosed, leaving many consumers to wonder if their purchases are safe.
Here's what you need to know about the recalled products:

All of these products share a 'Best Buy' date of December 24, 2024, and have specific GTIN and UPC codes that you can check against your purchased items.
If you find that you have one of these cheeses in your refrigerator, it's important to either dispose of it immediately or return it to the store where you purchased it for a full refund.
While no illnesses have been reported in connection with this recall, the risk of Listeria infection, or listeriosis, should not be taken lightly.
This is especially true for individuals over the age of 65, young children, pregnant women, and those with weakened immune systems.
Symptoms of listeriosis can include fever, muscle aches, nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea. If you or someone you know has consumed one of the affected cheeses and is experiencing these symptoms, it's imperative to seek medical attention promptly.
