Urgent recall of SPAR Chèvre Goat Cheese over Listeria risk
Horgan’s Delicatessen Supplies has issued an urgent recall of SPAR Chèvre Goats Cheese 100g after tests detected Listeria monocytogenes. The affected batches carry a use by date of 12 August 2025 and were distributed across Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland. The Food Standards Agency has asked shoppers to return the product to stores for a full refund, with warnings to be displayed in retail outlets selling the item.
Listeria infections can range from mild flu like symptoms to serious illness, with pregnant people, the elderly and those with weakened immune systems most at risk. The recall follows a separate Irish outbreak linked to Ballymaguire Foods ready meals; authorities say there is no evidence of a link between the two recalls.
