ALDI has issued a recall for around 4,800 pouches of Colby Jack cheese sold exclusively at its stores in Connecticut, Michigan, Ohio, and Pennsylvania due to potential contamination with stainless steel fragments. The affected product is Happy Farms by ALDI Colby Jack shredded cheese, packaged in flexible plastic stand-up pouches with specific lot numbers.
The recall affects 12-ounce packages of the cheese with “best by” dates of July 13, 2025, and July 14, 2025. Consumers are advised to check their purchases against these details.
Those who have purchased the affected product should not consume it and can return it to ALDI for a full refund or replacement. The FDA has classified this recall as Class II, indicating that while there may be temporary health consequences, they are likely reversible and the probability of serious adverse effects is remote.
