Listeria con Queso

Posted on December 18, 2007 by Gerald Pugliese
It seems Peregrina Cheese Corporation might have a cheese contamination on their hands. EMaxHealth is on it:
Commissioner Patrick Hooker today warned consumers not to consume certain “Queso Fresco, Fresh Cheese,” made by Peregrina Cheese Corp., 342 Ten Eyck St., Brooklyn, New York 11206 due to possible Listeria contamination.


The product is contained in a foil wrapped, 14 oz. net weight package with a code of 3973. The consumer warning affects all packages with this code.

A routine sample of the cheese, taken by an inspector from the Division of Milk Control and Dairy Services on November 27, 2007, was subsequently tested by the Department’s Food Laboratory and discovered to be contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes.
I just threw up in my mouth a little—EGAD!
