February 17, 2010 – Estrella Family Creamery of Montesano, WA is recalling Brewleggio, Domino, and Wynoochee River Blue cheeses because they have the potential to be contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes, an organism which can cause serious and sometimes fatal infections in young children, frail or elderly people, and others with weakened immune systems. Although healthy individuals may suffer only short-term symptoms such as high fever, severe headache, stiffness, nausea, abdominal pain and diarrhea, Listeria infection can cause miscarriages and stillbirths among pregnant women. The Domino cheese is a one pound, natural rind wheel made from cow’s milk. The Brewleggio cheese is a soft washed rind cow’s milk wheel 8" wide by 2" tall, weighing approximately 3 pounds. The Wynoochee River Blue Cheese is a 5 pound wheel with a rustic natural rind, blue veined. The products are not coded.
