  • Primary sources: FDA recall notice dated June 18, 2026; CDC outbreak summary; CDC investigation update

If cheese bought in the United States is in your home, the first thing to check today is not the brand slogan. It is plant or permit number 24-128. FDA expanded the Clover Hill Dairy recall on June 18, 2026 from selected soft cheese products to all current Clover Hill Dairy cheese products. CDC says the related listeria investigation currently includes 9 illnesses, 8 hospitalizations, and 1 death.

This matters because it is not just a quality complaint. It is a food-safety event tied to real hospitalizations and a death, and the cheese moved through farm markets, third-party sellers, and relabeling channels. A package does not need to say Clover Hill on the front to deserve a second look.

Four checks for today

  1. Take the cheese out and look for 24-128 on the package.
  2. Also check relabeled names such as KESSO, QUESOS LA RICURA, IZALCO, DE MI PUEBLO, and RIO LINDO.
  3. If it matches, do not eat it and remove it from meal plans now.
  4. Wash knives, cutting boards, containers, and refrigerator shelves that touched the cheese.

Who should check right away

  • Households that bought or received cheese from the United States after May 2026
  • Families with food brought home from travel, study, work trips, or gifts
  • Anyone with market, deli, or repackaged cheese in the refrigerator
  • Homes with pregnant people, older adults, or immunocompromised family members

What people may miss

FDA says the cheese may have been repackaged under different brand names. That makes this less of a logo check and more of a label-and-purchase-path check. If you skipped the earlier warning because your cheese was not ricotta, the June 18 expansion means you should look again.

FAQ

Q. I threw away the outer package. Am I in the clear?
No. Reconstruct the purchase date, seller, product type, and who brought it home. That is still useful for a cautious decision.

Q. We already ate some and feel fine. Is that enough?
Not necessarily. Higher-risk people should pay closer attention to symptoms and mention possible listeria exposure to a clinician.

Bottom line: If U.S. cheese is in your home, check 24-128 before the next meal. If it matches, take it off the table today.
