Great Lakes Cheese recalls specific pasteurized process cheese spreads due to refrigeration requirements not matching customer storage conditions.
Refrigerated pasteurized process cheese products may not be refrigerated at customer level due to labeled refrigeration requirements varying on finished product labels.
Great Lakes Cheese is recalling four types of pasteurized process cheese spreads because they may not be refrigerated at customer level as required by the product labels. This could lead to improper storage and potential safety issues if the products are not kept cold enough.
The products require refrigeration after purchase or opening, but customers may not be following the label instructions. If the cheese spreads are not kept cold enough, they could spoil or become unsafe to eat.
Customers who purchased Great Lakes Cheese Easy Cheesy, HEB Easy Melt Queso Blanco, Ingles Laura Lynn Cheasy, or So Cheezy Original cheese spreads. Those who store these products at room temperature instead of refrigerating them are at higher risk.
Check for the following brands and sizes: Great Lakes Cheese Easy Cheesy (32 oz), HEB Easy Melt Queso Blanco (16 oz), Ingles Laura Lynn Cheasy (32 oz), or So Cheezy Original (32 oz). Each has a specific UPC code listed in the recall notice.
Look for the product name, size, and UPC code on the package to confirm if it's part of the recall.
If you have the recalled product, refrigerate it as soon as possible to maintain safety.
