Summary

Losurdo Foods, Inc. is recalling 474 cases of various Boars Head, Losurdo, and Piancone fresh mozzarella products. This recall was initiated as a precautionary measure because a production employee who handled the cheese was diagnosed with food poisoning shortly after the production run. While the employee contracted the illness from an outside source, there is a risk of cross-contamination during the manufacturing process. Consumers who have these specific lots of cheese should return them to the store for a full refund or throw them away.
