Summary

Approximately 1,299 pounds of Somerdale Red Dragon Cheddar Cheese is being recalled because the label fails to disclose wheat, which is an ingredient in the ale wash used during production. This cheese was sold by the pound after being cut and repacked in plastic wrap by Wegmans. Affected products were distributed in Maryland, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, and Virginia. Consumers who have purchased this cheese and have a wheat allergy or sensitivity should return it to their local Wegmans store for a full refund.
