Who should take extra care?

Listeria can be especially harmful during pregnancy, at age 65 or older, and for people with weakened immunity. CDC recommends safer food choices for these groups, including cheese made with pasteurized milk.

How this relates to the October recall

The November 10 notice covers both cheddar varieties and a wider date range. The earlier October 15 notice concerned E. coli and a specific lot. FDA now lists November 10 as both the company announcement date and its posting date.
