Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Walla Walla Cheese Company LLC is recalling approximately 139 units (about 139 pounds) of various cheddar cheese curds because they were made from a batch of milk that was under-pasteurized. This recall includes Plain Cheddar Curds, Sweet Onion Mustard Cheddar Curds, and Mad Curds sold in vacuum-sealed bags of various sizes. These products were distributed to consumers in Oregon and Washington starting in late 2021. Consumers who have these products should not eat them and should return them to the place of purchase for a full refund.

Risk

Under-pasteurized milk may contain harmful bacteria that are normally killed during the pasteurization process, posing a risk of foodborne illness if consumed. No illnesses have been reported to date.

What You Should Do

  1. Check your refrigerator for Walla Walla Cheese Company Cheddar Curds, Sweet Onion Mustard Cheddar Curds, or Mad Curds in 10 oz. or 5 lb. vacuum-sealed zip lock bags.
  2. Identify affected products by looking for the code '126201' and a production date of 10/26/21; note that these packages do not have a 'best use by' or expiration date.
  3. Immediately stop using and do not eat any of the recalled cheese products.
  4. Return the affected cheese curds to the retail store where they were purchased to receive a full refund.
  5. If you have further questions, contact the Walla Walla Cheese Company directly or call the FDA Consumer Complaint line at 1-888-723-3332 (1-888-SAFEFDA).
