Company announcement
Family Farmstead Dairy is recalling a specific lot of raw mild cheddar cheese due to potential contamination with Escherichia coli O157:H7 bacteria.
The product was distributed to grocers in New York and New Jersey.
No illnesses or allergic reactions have been reported as of October 15, 2026.
The contamination was discovered when a sample in Maryland isolated two strains of Shiga toxin-producing E. coli (STEC) from Family Farmstead A2 Raw Cheddar, 8 oz package, with a Best By Date of July 22, 2027.
Risk:
E. coli O157:H7 causes a diarrheal illness often with bloody stools. Although most healthy adults can recover completely within a week, some people can develop a form of kidney failure called Hemolytic Uremic Syndrome (HUS). HUS is most likely to occur in young children and the elderly. The condition can lead to serious kidney damage and even death.
