Frozen cheese croquettes recalled for possible Listeria monocytogenes contamination
Lidl US is recalling Duc De Coeur Camembert Cheese Croquettes due to possible contamination with Listeria monocytogenes. No illnesses have been reported.
The agency’s classification
FDA (Food): Class II
Class II is a situation in which use of or exposure to a violative product may cause temporary or medically reversible adverse health consequences, or where the probability of serious adverse health consequences is remote.
This is the agency’s own classification, taken from its notice. The severity score below is our assessment, not the agency’s. How recall classes work
What this means for you
Our assessment, not the agency’s: severity 3/5 (High).
Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.
Our severity reasoning: Listeria monocytogenes is a high-risk pathogen explicitly listed in the Score 3 criterion. The source states only possible contamination with no reported illnesses, and the FDA Class II classification without hospitalization reports keeps this at Score 3 rather than Score 4.
