Listeria outbreak in Mexican-style soft cheese prompts recall Recall alert (Source: WAFB) By LAINA S. MILLER | Capital News Service Washington Bureau | April 28, 2021 at 7:54 PM EDT - Updated April 28 at 7:54 PM
An ongoing listeria outbreak in fresh, soft cheeses threatens 26 states on the East Coast and the Midwest, with at least four positive cases and one death in Maryland, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
The source is believed to be a New Jersey-based company called El Abuelito Cheese Inc., which has recalled several varieties of its Mexican-style soft cheeses.
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration warned El Abuelito Cheese about the possibility of a listeria outbreak in a June 2020 letter after inspections revealed food safety violations at the company’s plant.
