Check Your Fridge – Kraft Heinz Recall On Processed Cheese Slices

The voluntary recall affects around 83,800 cases of the individually wrapped Kraft Singles American processed cheese slices. These were shipped to a limited number of customers, according to a press release sent Tuesday, September 19, 2023.
