FDA Announces Major Cheese Recall Due To Potentially Deadly Bacteria

A queso cheese product is being recalled and it comes with a dire warning, the FDA announced.

The product was contaminated with a potentially deadly bacterium and people are urged not to eat it.

Florida-based Tama Corporation is recalling 24-ounce containers of the cheese product “Queso de Mano PAISA” after it was discovered to contain Listeria. The contamination was found after the company was alerted by its co-packing company.

The product, bearing lot number 2420104 and a best-by date of May 16, 2024, was distributed only to Rancho Market stores in Utah and there have been no reported illnesses linked with consuming the product.

A statement from Tama Corporation contained in the recall notice reads: “Because of our commitment to the safety of our consumers, at Tama Corporation, we demand rigorous quality controls from our products suppliers.”

Following the discovery, the company said it “immediately contacted the involved supermarket chain to halt its sale and account for all the product belonging to that vat.”
