Listeria Concerns Trigger Wegmans Recall
Wegmans is recalling its Wegmans-branded Medium Camembert Soft Ripened Cheese, and various products containing this cheese, over concerns of a potential Listeria contamination.
The affected items, sold between July 1 and Aug. 12, 2025, include:
- Wegmans Medium Camembert Soft Ripened Cheese, 8.8 OZ, UPC: 77890-53515 with best-by dates of 7/26/25, 8/12/25, and 8/19/25

The products being recalled were sold in the cheese department at all Wegmans stores in Connecticut, Delaware, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Virginia, and Washington, D.C.
The cheese was supplied to the grocer by Estancia Holdings of Cumming, Georgia, who initiated a recall after the company was notified by its French supplier that three shipments they received may be contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes. No illnesses associated with this recall have been reported to Wegmans or its supplier to date.
Listeria is an organism that 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.
Wegmans has placed automated phone calls to alert customers who purchased these products using Shoppers Club. Customers should not consume the products and return them to the service desk for a full refund. Those with questions may contact Wegmans Food Markets at 1-855-934-3663, available daily from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. EST.
