Face Rock Creamery Issues Recall for Garlic Cheddar Curds Due to Listeria Risk
PORTLAND, Ore. — Face Rock Creamery, a cheese producer located in Bandon, Oregon, is recalling two batches of its popular Vampire Slayer Garlic Cheddar Curds due to potential contamination with Listeria monocytogenes. The recall specifically affects 6 oz. cups with a use-by date of August 29, 2025, sold at Trader Joe’s locations in Northern California and Northern Nevada.
The affected products are packaged in clear, sealed plastic cups and carry the UPC code 8 51222 00528 7. The lot numbers involved in the recall are 20250519VS01 and 20250519VS02.
According to the Food & Drug Administration (FDA), Listeria monocytogenes can lead to severe illness, particularly in vulnerable populations, including the elderly, young children, and individuals with weakened immune systems. Although healthy individuals may experience only mild, short-term symptoms—such as fever, headache, stiffness, nausea, abdominal pain, and diarrhea—the infection poses more serious risks, including miscarriages and stillbirths in pregnant women.
As of right now, Face Rock Creamery has reported no instances of illness associated with the recalled products. The company encourages consumers who have purchased these specific curds to discard them immediately or return them to the place of purchase for a full refund.
Customers with further questions regarding this recall can reach out to Face Rock Creamery directly for more information. The company is committed to ensuring the safety of its products and the well-being of its customers.
Stay informed, stay safe.
