Listeria monocytogenes
Sargento is recalling specific types of Parmesan cheese that may contain Listeria monocytogenes, a bacteria that can cause serious illness. Consumers should stop using these products immediately to avoid potential health risks.
Listeria monocytogenes is a bacterium that can grow in refrigerated foods and cause serious infections. In rare cases, it can lead to miscarriages, stillbirths, severe illness, or death, especially in vulnerable populations.
Owners of the recalled Parmesan cheese packages with the listed UPC codes and batch dates are affected. Pregnant women, newborns, and immunocompromised individuals are at higher risk for severe complications from Listeria.

Immediately discard or stop using any Parmesan cheese packages with the listed UPC codes and batch dates to avoid potential Listeria contamination.
