The Whole Foods Cabricharme cheese recall applies to specific Cabricharme products sold at 18 Whole Foods Market stores in seven U.S. states after egg lysozyme, an egg-white protein, was found to be undeclared on the product label. People with an egg allergy or severe sensitivity should check the cheese label before eating it.
How to check whether your Cabricharme cheese is recalled
The FDA-posted Whole Foods Market announcement identifies two product labels and PLUs. Check the product name, PLU and the state where it was purchased rather than assuming every Cabricharme cheese is affected.
Fromagerie Coop de Mean Cabricharme Raw Milk – Aged 60 days. The recall notice lists this product in California, Connecticut, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York and Rhode Island.
Belgian Cabricharme. The recall notice lists this product in California and Arizona.
The FDA recall table includes affected best-by dates extending through October 7, 2026. A matching PLU alone should be checked against the current official recall details.
Whole Foods says consumers should destroy the recalled cheese. Purchasers may obtain a full refund with a valid receipt.
Why the recall matters
Egg is a major food allergen. Undeclared egg can cause serious or potentially life-threatening reactions in people who are allergic or severely sensitive. The recall announcement said no illnesses had been reported as of September 11, 2026.
The affected products were removed from store shelves, but that does not eliminate risk from cheese already purchased and stored at home. The key reader task is therefore to verify the package already in hand.
One PLU detail needs careful checking
TPS reviewed the FDA primary notice and found that it lists PLU 57953 for the Raw Milk – Aged 60 days product. At least one current secondary report used 57853 instead. TPS is using the FDA value, 57953, because the primary recall notice controls the product identification.
What remains unknown
The FDA notice says the affected cheese was sold at 18 Whole Foods Market stores, but the recovered announcement does not identify those 18 store locations individually. The recall could also be expanded, corrected or later closed. Readers should therefore recheck current official recall information if their product details are unclear or if new information emerges.
Verification note
TPS checked the FDA recall announcement, the listed product names, PLUs, affected states, consumer action and illness status, and compared those details with current secondary coverage to identify any material discrepancies.
