Middlefield Original Cheese Coop is recalling approximately 2,760 units (totaling 2,760 pounds) of various shredded cheeses including Cheddar, Mozzarella, Parmesan, and a Mozzarella/Provolone mix. This recall was initiated after it was determined the products may be contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes. These products were packaged in 5lb plastic bags and distributed to a single consignee in Ohio between October and November 2019.
The cheese may be contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes, a bacterium that can cause serious and sometimes fatal infections in young children, 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.
