The FDA reported that the Middlefield Original Cheese Co-Op facility in Middlefield, OH, is recalling 246.5 Lbs. of 100% Grass-fed Pepper Jack Cheese, sold in 8 oz. packages, 5 lb. loaves, and 40 lb. loaves, 2.5 Lbs. of Horseradish Flavored Cheese, sold in 8 oz. packages, 640 Lbs. of Monterey Jack Cheese sold in 8 oz. packages, 5 lb. loaves, and 40 lb. loaves, and 4,544.5 Lbs. of White Cheddar Cheese sold in 40 Lb. Loaves because of potential contamination with Listeria monocytogenes. The products were produced on June 16, 2025, June 24, 2025, and July 16, 2025, and distributed in the state of Ohio between July 14, 2025, and August 7, 2025. Products were shipped to manufacturers and distributors and sold in retail stores. The recall was initiated after the company's product testing revealed the presence of Listeria monocytogenes in the products. Production was suspended while the company investigated the source of the contamination, which was determined to be from environmental contamination that migrated to food-contact areas of the production process. There have been no reports of illness to date associated with the consumption of these products. @ https://www.fda.gov/safety/recalls-market-withdrawals-safety-alerts/middlefield-original-cheese-co-op-recalls-100-grass-fed-pepper-jack-cheese-and-horseradish-flavored
