🚨 Cheese Recall Alert 🧀
The FDA has upgraded a nationwide cheese recall to its highest danger level after Listeria (a bacteria) was found in certain grated Pecorino Romano cheeses. Eating contaminated cheese can lead to severe symptoms, especially in pregnant people, older adults, young children, and those with weakened immune systems.
👉 If you have the affected cheese:
✔ Do not eat it — throw it away or return it for a refund.
✔ Clean and sanitize any surfaces the cheese touched.
✔ Watch for symptoms like fever, confusion, and diarrhea
Call us with questions or concerns! 1-800-222-1222. Learn more: https://www.king5.com/article/news/nation-world/fda-upgrades-nationwide-cheese-recall-to-highest-danger-level/507-8e5e3317-7707-4fcf-88ed-7d6099e33c5a
