More than 1 million bags of shredded cheese sold at major retailers, including Walmart, Publix and Aldi, have been recalled because the products\u00a0may contain metal fragments, according<\/a>\u00a0to the Food and Drug Administration.\u00a0<\/p>\n

In a Dec. 1 notice, the FDA said the shredded cheese was manufactured by Ohio-based Great Lakes Cheese Co., and was sold in 31 states and Puerto Rico. The recall is rated as “class II”<\/a> by the FDA, which means the product could “cause temporary or medically reversible adverse health consequences,” although the potential for serious injuries is remote.<\/p>\n

The FDA’s notice covers nearly 236,000 cases of low-moisture part-skim mozzarella shredded cheese, which represents the largest portion of the recall. Each case includes between four to 12 bags of cheese. The recall also covers:<\/p>\n

15,490 cases of Italian-style shredded cheese blend\u00a0
4,298 cases of pizza-style shredded cheese blend
4,131 cases of mozzarella and provolone shredded cheese blend
1,900 cases of Happy Farms by Aldi Italian Style shredded cheese blend
1,850 cases of Target’s Good & Gather mozzarella & parmesan shredded cheese blend
117 cases of Food Club finely shredded pizza-style four-cheese blend<\/p>\n

The products have sell-by dates ranging from January to late March 2026, according to the FDA.\u00a0<\/p>\n
