Wegmans issues recall for cheese product sold in Pennsylvania due to health risk
PENNSYLVANIA (WHP) — Wegmans Food Markets is recalling a cheese product that has been sold in Pennsylvania recently due to a potential presence of Listeria, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) announced.

Otherwise health individuals may experience the following symptoms if infected:
- High fever

- Stiffness
- Abdominal pain
- Diarrhea
It can also cause miscarriages and stillbirths among pregnant women.

It is packaged in a plastic tub.
