Costco issues recall for some Tillamook cheese slices that could contain ‘plastic pieces’

In an abundance of caution, Costco has issued a recall for certain Tillamook cheese slices due to potential contamination with plastic pieces.

Both Tillamook and Costco are working closely with regulatory authorities to ensure that all potentially compromised products are removed from circulation and consumer hands as swiftly as possible.

This recall highlights ongoing efforts by both retailers and manufacturers to uphold high standards of food safety and protect public health.
