MINEOLA, N.Y. -- Pollio Italian Cheese Company announced a recall of certain Polly-O ricotta cheese packages and some food service ricotta products because of potential contamination from Salmonella bacteria.
Pollio said the Department of Defense contacted the company and the New York Department of Agriculture and Markets when a sample of cheese tested positive for the bacteria.
The recalled cheese, in 15 oz. and 3 lb. sizes, had the code date DEC- 10 and was distributed through retail grocery stores and food service distributors.
The recall also applies to 3 lb. foodservice products with the code date DEC-10 PD1.
The states involved are Arizona, California, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Louisiana, Massachusetts, Maryland, Michigan, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Texas, and Virginia.
Salmonella can cause serious and sometimes fatal infections in young children, frail or elderly people, and others with weakened immune systems. No illnesses have been reported in connection with the products to date. Copyright © 2001, The Associated Press
