Customers should be mindful of the recall and check the products they have purchased from Cheese Full Circle, Long Paddock Cheese and The Cheese School. This recall is out of an abundance of caution to protect consumers from being exposed to E. Coli, which can cause severe gastrointestinal symptoms.
To stay safe, it is important to double-check any products purchased from these retailers to ensure they are not part of this recall.
