Sargento Foods Inc. announced a recall for some sliced and shredded cheese products, becoming the latest company to issue a recall over contaminated cheese.
The company said products are being recalled due to a potential contamination of Listeria monocytogenes after Sargento’s supplier, based in Middlebury, Indiana, notified the company that a specialty Longhorn Colby cheese that it supplied may contain the possible contaminant.
Sargento announced Saturday that no illnesses have been reported and that the company remains “committed to food safety and the quality and integrity of our products.”
