If you purchased Mexican or Salvadoran-style cottage cheese (requesón) from a supermarket, retail store, or restaurant in Maryland, Virginia, or Washington, D.C. between May 11 and June 1, 2026, a new recall directly affects you.
La Ceiba Foods Latin Market Inc. issued a recall on June 26, 2026 for Requesón Salvadoreño (Salvadoran Cottage Cheese) and Requesón Mexicano (Mexican Cottage Cheese), sold under the La Colonia and Selectos Latinos brand names — due to possible contamination with Listeria monocytogenes. This is the third distinct brand identified in the ongoing, deadly Clover Hill Dairy Listeria outbreak, following Clover Hill Dairy's own labeled products and a separate recall by Nelson & Isa Lacteos, LLC.
