‘Do not use, sell, serve': Recall issued for cheese sold in Ontario over Listeria concerns
The Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) issued a recall notice for a variety of cheese sold in Ontario due to potential Listeria monocytogenes contamination. The recall impacts the Mount Becher Buffalo Medium Cheese manufactured by Natural Pastures Cheese Company. 'Do not use, sell, serve or distribute the affected product,' the CFIA states in an alert . The recall impacts 150-gram packages from batch number 854 263 with a best-before date of Oct. 2, 2025. The product was distributed in Ontario, the CFIA notice states. Listeria monocytogenes is a bacteria that can naturally exist in soil, plants, decaying vegetables, sewage and untreated water. Listeria can also get into sources of water when feces from infected animals enter the water supply. Fruits and vegetables can become contaminated a few ways — if contaminated water is sprayed on crops, or from listeria in soil or manure-based fertilizers. Symptoms of listeriosis — the illness caused by the bacteria — can start as early as three days after eating contaminated food, and includes those similar to food poisoning, such as fever, nausea, cramps, diarrhea and vomiting. Symptoms can also include headache, constipation and muscle aches. If you think you became sick from consuming a recalled product, contact your health-care provider. You can report a food concern or complaint to the Canadian Food Inspection Agency online. Consumers can report any health or safety incidents related to the use of products by filling out a consumer product incident report form .
