Cheese recall expands to include more brands due to contamination of Listeria monocytogenes, which can be especially dangerous for diabetics.
The recently announced nationwide cheese recall, that was expanded once, has been expanded again to include Lipari, Copperwood and Yoke’s brands. Complete details appear below for these brands.
Lipari Foods, LLC has issued a voluntary recall of various bulk and retail cheeses manufactured by Deutsch Kase Haus due to potential contamination of Listeria monocytogenes.
Listeria monocytogenes is an organism which can cause serious and sometimes fatal infections in young children, people with diabetes, frail or elderly people, and others with weakened immune systems.
Although healthy individuals may suffer only short-term symptoms such as high fever, severe headache, stiffness, nausea, abdominal pain and diarrhea, Listeria infection can cause miscarriages and stillbirths among pregnant women.
