Sysco Recalls Block and Barrel Cheddar Cheese Due to Temperature Issues

Sysco Charlotte is recalling 58 units of Block and Barrel Imperial Cheddar Cheese because a cooler malfunction may have compromised food safety.

What this means for you

Minor labeling or packaging issue, or a voluntary precautionary recall. Risk of harm is low but real — follow the manufacturer's instructions.

Our severity reasoning: The recall is classified as FDA Class II, but the source text explicitly states no illnesses or injuries were reported, and the hazard is a theoretical risk of unsafe consumption due to temperature malfunction, fitting the criteria for a moderate severity score.

Plain-English summary

Sysco Charlotte is recalling 58 units of Block and Barrel Imperial CHEESE CHEDDAR SHARP PRINT WHT 1/10 LB. The product was distributed to Georgia, North Carolina, and South Carolina.

Because the holding temperature could affect food safety, the recalled cheese may be unsafe for consumption. The source text does not report any specific illnesses or injuries associated with this recall.
