Saputo Cheese USA, Inc. has recalled 11,099 units of various cottage cheese and sour cream products under the Clover Sonoma and Great Value (Walmart) brands. These products may be under-pasteurized due to a broken seal on the manufacturer's pasteurizer, which was discovered during an inspection by the California Department of Agriculture. The recall affects several sizes of cottage cheese and sour cream shipped to 11 states, including California, Washington, and Illinois. Consumers should check their packaging for specific 'Best If Used By' dates and plant number 06-71.
Under-pasteurized dairy products may contain harmful bacteria that are normally destroyed during the heating process. Consuming these products could lead to foodborne illness, though no specific infections or injuries have been reported to date.
